Britain. Seals. Outstanding collection of newspaper stamps, mostly in superb condition from the late 18th century! Housed in two albums, one bulging to capacity, many pages are well filled as this collector tried to complete reconstructed sheets of specific numbers, all one of a kind, an extraordinary task! One album has about 750 items and the other about 500, as well as a superb range of Irish Harps again early 19th century with several dozens of these as well, making a grand total of 1300+ examples, all different. It is highly unlikely you will ever see a collection like this again. Show less

British Colonies (Commonwealth). ★★/★/⊙. One large volume filled with over 30 years of accumulating better items, occasionally from stripping down the better material from collections or bought individually. There is much attractive material throughout including some that would benefit from further presentation, with hundreds of potential individual auction lots. The owner's intention was to do just that but never got round to it. This must be viewed slowly to be appreciated. There is so much interesting British Commonwealth material here, including surprisingly MNH from Queen Victoria onwards. One of the best lots in the auction. The entire lot is presented at www.philea.se. Show less
