Lot 71176 – 1877-1965, Postal Stationery collection, presented

1877-1965, Postal Stationery collection, presented in four albums, a substantial study beginning with the Penitentiary postcards nicely written-up on album pages from the first issues at 1/2d through to the 3d, unused and used examples, similarly a set of pages following the next iteration of Postal cards issued (H&G7 onwards), including ‘specimen’ overprints, unused, used examples inland and destination mailings (noted Finland, USA, Germany, Switzerland, Scotland, Canada, St Vincent and England), instructional markings, postage dues, uprated cards, scarcer postmarks, redirected mail, a selection of registered letter envelops and newspaper wrapper, although the bulk is postal cards with hundreds of examples, a real treasure trove of material worth more detailed inspection.
