Description
Postmarks. 1861-1900 second numeral allocation on sidefaces and Pictorials; 680 singles, pairs and pieces, on Hagner sheets in black binder. Some reasonable duplication. A very fine collection, with 47 items rated 3R, 19 4R and 1 5R (356, Rinadeena/Rosebery). The 4Rs are 5, 27, 66 ex Lancaster, 78, 118, 139, 188 ex Lancaster, 246, 253, 268, 271 ex Clemente, 272 x 2 one ex Lancaster, 294, 330 ex Clemente, 344, 363, 367 (tie with overlapping CDS), 376 and 388. Most have been individually purchased so the average quality is very high, with some very good ties (where the CDS and numeral appear on the same piece, confirming the allocation). A fine achievement, deserving an appreciative home
