Worldwide Collection Balance to 1940 in Scott International 1947 Album: 19th Century to 1940 mounted collection balance of a few thousand different stamps, mint and used, in 1947 bound (not post binder) Scott International Album, Part I (1840-1940, U.S. and A-Z). This is the full International, not the International Junior; quite unusual and in fair condition (pages in good condition, binding fair and has been repaired a bit). While it is clear that stamps have been removed from this collection (thus we call it a "balance"), sometime in the modern era somebody added some stamps in neat clear modern mounts (odd a 70 year old album). One could potentially even continue the collection in this album. Contents somewhat scattered (as usual), with here and ther a country such as Bosnia or Central Lithuania which is much better represented. There is some U.S., including medium values in variable quality and decent coverage of the 1920-1940 issues. There is a fair number of large-size and commemorative issues, including in Latin America the ubiquitous colorful Seebeck issues. While quality varies (as typical in vintage collections), the overwhelming majority are F-VF or VF. You will find many stamps with catalog values of more than $1 -- this is better than usual in that regard for such an album. You should be able to spend quite a few enjoyable hours extracting useful bits from this old collection! |
