This is a huge foreign collection housed in a beaten, but well-loved and well-used, New Ideal album.
There are many thousands of stamps in this bulging album with much of interest throughout, including plenty of high value stamps and sets.
What sets this collection apart from many similar ones housed in these albums is the proportion of stamps from the 1900s to the 1930s. These years sometimes are less well filled with the emphasis a lot of the time being on the earliest years and 'classics'. Although plenty of the earlies are represented, it is harder to find such in-depth collections for the later period of these albums with so many of the less common stamps.
Some stamps have been removed over time, but as the images will show, there has certainly not been any 'cherry picking'. I can only assume someone has taken only stamps they needed for their own collection, with much of the value remaining. Please note that I have removed the stamps from the Albania pages to sell separately given the impressive nature of this country section.
The 275+ images below show all pages with three or more stamps, unless more noteworthy, so please do take the time to have a good look through to fully appreciate what is on offer. Condition will of course be mixed and overall catalogue value will be immense.
Please note that I do not have time to check any large lots in any detail so please recognise that you are bidding on this basis and satisfy yourself with what you have viewed before placing your bid. If you are unsure about anything please feel free to ask.
Please see my other items. I will combine postage if possible.
Any postage costs DO NOT include any import/customs charges that may be due. These are the buyer's responsibility and so you should take this into account before placing your bid. Any item sent internationally as anything other than standard will be sent 'registered' to cover any insurance for me if the item is lost. As such, a declaration of value has to be made and so import charges will be based on this.
