Mexico, 1879-83 Foreign Mail Issue Collection, of over 1,400 mostly different neatly mounted by district (all represented) and year in five Elbe albums, includes mint, postally used and remainder cancelled with some varieties present more than one way; the 50c 100c mint or remainder cancelled are present for nearly all districts, sometimes for more than one year, many of these where printed in very small quantities (25-100 stamps) and are desirable in any condition (for many, postally used do not exist), rare postally used include 12c Texcoco 1182, an 85c (382), three 25c on thin paper, 50c green thin paper (383), three 50c yellow (382, 2782, 5483), two 100c orange (2682, 3782), and two 100c black (5383), some duplication but often for such differences as style, color of district name or cancel, with and without name, etc., few blacks, Scott (counting remainder/doubtful cancels as mint) will exceed $21,000, this is a carefully built collection with condition generally above the norm and would be an excellent basis for further expansion. Estimate $3,000 - 4,000.
