United States Collection Balance in 3 Volume Scott National Album 1857-1978: Collection of several hundred different, mint and used, on Scott National album pages to 1978 in three National 2-post binders (one 2 inch, two 3 inch; very slight wear but quite serviceable and nice looking). Volume I has lots of stamps including a nice showing of the 1920s-30s mint and used, complete mint Farley Parks and Famous Americans, and a nearly complete run of 3c commemoratives plus some plate blocks. Volume II is sparse, but contains a fair run of NH commemoratives of the 4c-6c era plus some earlier airmails. Volume III is very sparse, but has a few postage dues and cut squares, pages for U.S. revenues, and a collection of mint and used United Nations including some early mint Geneva. Typical variable condition: 19the and early 20th Century ranges from sound to faults; after 1920 generally F-VF or better; after 1940 mostly NH VF. Overall, this provides a decent foundation and housing for your U.S. collection, quite suitable for continuation and expansion. |

U.S. Fifty-Year-Old Collection 1870-1953: Over 400 different, mint and used, plus a few both ways, on venerable Thorp/Naribo album pages. Early issues somewhat scattered; fairly strong in 1930s including mint Parks and Farley Parks; 1940s nearly complete including the 3c commemoratives mint and Famous Americans mixed mint or used. You will also find some airmails and some parcel post stamps. Condition varies as typical, ranging from earlies with minor faults or average centering to much F-VF and many later being NH VF. Overall this provides a useful range of issues that are now all over 50 years old. |

United States 4-Cent To 6-Cent Era Plate Block Collection: Collection of about 125 NH VF commemorative, definitive, and airmail plate blocks, from the 4-cent to 6-cent era, plus just a couple later. Includes other denominations in that time period. Unpicked, offered as it came to me and appears to include "better" issues; I see some that are on the stamp buy lists. Appears to be all-different. Spot checks found only NH VF completely sound plate blocks. I have not counted but the face value, but there are a lot of these that sell for 50 cents or $1 each. Not checked for scarce plate numbers. A great way to start or boost your plate block collection at a very low price. |

United States 5-Cent To 6-Cent Era Zip and Mail-Early Block Collection: Small group of about 22 NH VF mostly commemorative 5-Cent Zip (4-blocks) and 6-Cent Mail Early (6-blocks) blocks, plus just a couple later. Unpicked, offered as t came to me and appears to include "better" issues; I see some that are on the stamp buy lists. All-different. NH VF completely sound plate blocks. This is a small group, but frankly, some of these are getting a little hard to find now as they are being used up for postage. I know I could use these for postage in a heartbeat, but I hate to see them go that way. The face value is about $7.00, but there are a lot of these that sell for 50 cents or $1 each. |

U.S. Scott #1953-2002 (#2002b) Matched Set of Four Full Sheets: Set of four matched full sheets of the 1982 State Birds and Flowers issue, all plate number 22222, from each of the four corners. Presented in an attractive album with a very interesting (really!) small book about the development of the stamp issue. Brookman value is $45 per sheet; I normally sell individual sheets for $25. This set of four priced just as four individual sheets. One could search around for a long time trying to find a matched set like this. |

Associated Stamps of the West - Two Label Books: Collectible labels issued by Tide Water Associated Oil Company. First book is "Associated Stamps of the West", black cover, spaces for 100 labels (#1-#100), missing only 2 (#66 and #67 were never present). The labels are almost all neatly hinged; I only see a couple stuck down. Book cover has a couple of spots but the inside is in excellent condition. Second book is "Associated Roads to Romance Stamps of the West", red cover, spaces for 100 labels (#101-#200), only 46 stamps present, almost all of which are stuck down, as usual. Book is in pristine condition. Tremendous range of topics / thematics. I have seen these labels offered for as much as $5 each. Extremely collectible and very seldom seen now, especially in books. Total of 144 labels. If broken up and sold individually the value would be $200-$400. |
