Worldwide, Collection, mint and used collection of the first 100 years of philately, housed in four well-filled Scott International albums, old collection contains a diverse coverage of the pre-1940 period, including U.S. and Possessions (note a nice page of Hawaii), Europe and Scandinavia with French, German, Italian and Portuguese offices and Colonies, Russia and other East Europe, Latin America (even Colombia states), value is mostly in $5-$50 range with some higher (these likely to be mixed condition), but bulk of the owner's 61,000+ cat value will be fine-very fine, a great lot for the "old-school" type who doesn't so much go for those stamps produced more for the collector than for the purpose for which they were intended. Estimate $3,000 - 4,000.
Realized: $5,000
