Lot 2916 A

Canada. Mostly ★★. Splendid collection, strong in Newfoundland with 3 d triangle imperf mint, useful 19th cent. mint, followed by 1897 Cabot complete to 60 cts with the key value, the 35 cts MNH. The 20th century, a similar pattern with early royalty complete, waterfalls complete to 24 cts, caribou to 36 cts, the long airmail set of 3 to $1, Gilbert complete to 32 cts, coronations, etc. The section from Canada from beaver to modern with extensive new issues costs. Highlights here are the Quebec complete mint all with OG with the 10 cts particularly well centered, then the admirals to 50 cts mint, through to all the commem sets incl. Parliament, mountain ranges, Champlain, chateaux, both the destroyers etc. The face value for the section bought on a new issue service will probably run to several 100s of dollars incl. all the high values, of course MNH. Completely uncatalogued, most worthwhile and substantial.
