Ireland. ★★/★/⊙. A very interesting and challenging collection, many 100s of items with some scarce material particularly in the seahorses. However there are a few stamps with occasional faults noted, nevertheless an important range with the best being the 1922 Thom 2/6d, 5/- and 10/- mint, the 1922/23 to 10/- mint, followed by the 1 1/2d and 2d pairs variety long '1' in 1922 mint, as well as 1925/28 10/- mint, etc. Also seen late 1930s onwards including the 1937s St Patrick 10/- mint, later to modern era loaded with defins, etc. Those looking for a comprehensive, in depth and substantial collection of this country and will accept the Thom being damaged, this is an unparalleled opportunity at a very conservative valuation. In the beginning mixed quality, later fine.
