22K GOLDEN REPLICAS OF THE STAMPS OF THE CENTURY
1950s– 1990s: COMPLETE Set of 75 STAMPS
I am offering for your consideration my Mom's vintage album of 22k Gold Replicas of United States Stamps, consisting of 75 covers. Each 33 cent stamp features intricate designs from over the decades of a 22k gold stamp that matches the original stamp of multi-colors. The album features stamps of First Day of Issue from various places of origin within the United States with unique designs that are sure to impress any stamp collector. The album and stamps are in excellent condition and come protected in plastic sleeves with the original album. Although there are no flaws in the stamps, a few of the edges of the envelopes have a slight discoloration or minor missing pieces due to sticking out from the protective plastic and getting air exposure over the last 25 years. I’ll let my photos do most of my description, but know that the majority of envelopes are in great condition (see last few pictures for close up of the worse ones.) I shared as many photos of the stamps as Ebay would allow, but wanted to be sure you knew of a couple of the issues with a few of the envelopes only. So feel free to zoom in and look closely at the pictures I attached and see how most of the envelopes are in perfect condition. All my items come from a smoke free and pet free home.
Set includes: 1 complete set of 15 stamps per decade from the 1950s-1990s with Album Cover (stamped w/ Mother's name) 25 pages with three stamps per page; total of (75) 22k gold stamps.
