Interesting sections include specimen cards, airmail, military cards of WW1 and WW2 with a range of censorship markings (Greek and foreign) and very scarce censored military cards sent free of charge. A very comprehensive collection in excellent quality throughout that deserves close study and viewing. Ideal for the serious collector and a collection with a great potential for exhibiting.
