                 Collections and Mixed Lots.                                                      
        1     Extensive world accumulation in two cartons, in biscuit tins and plastic tubs. Although the
               bulk is large quantities of cheaper stamps and duplicates (usually sorted by country or area),
               we note a few UK booklets, and others that may be items intended for inclusion in a main
               collection but still to be added. Many 1,000s. Estimate is a guess. þ      ..        £300.
        2     Box with modern but useful accum. of often larger items (sheets/sheetlets/m.s./booklets/
               packs, etc.) inc. USA, Channel Is., IoM, UK, Australia, etc. – the UK inc. u.m. and c.t.o.
               modern inc. some more difficult. (Many 100s) þ              ..                   ..               ..                £150.
        3     Fairly small box, but with quite decent quality contents. Much European, and with lots of
               stamps/items cat. at least a few pounds each. Noted are Germany, Canada (inc. Newfound-

               ection. Only slightly picked at some time, and containing mainly 19^th Century issues with
               some later additions. Includes two reasonable UK penny blacks, better Norway, German
               States and other European, some Commonwealth and Overseas. (1,116)                ..                £120.
        6     Accumulation and remainders from a much larger collection, all in one carton. Due to the
               original source, we guess this is worth checking – some UK pmk. interest, UK souvenir

        7     Two file boxes with a general collection. Includes parts of a 1990 World Cup colln., a

        9     Fifteen various stockbooks and one album of mixed non-European countries (includes
               Commonwealth). Generally excludes larger countries – good though not scarce ranges.
               (1,000s) þ                ..                 ..                 ..               ..                   ..               ..                    90.
      10     Old Ideal album with printed spaces to 1917 and some stamps of later dates added. Odd
               better here and there e.g. two UK penny blacks (one quite good 4-margin, other badly cut-
               into). Condition typically mixed. (c.450 Commonwealth, 640 foreign) þ                 ..                    80.

               (generally at about 20% cat. – but generally not accounting for condition, so better or worse
               value). Another book of UK used QV to KG5 not priced but s.t.c. c.£900. (100s) Also a
               Rhodesia 1905 Falls 2/6 m.m. (cat.£100. but with repaired tear and short perfs.) 50.
      16     Two boxes with a strange mix – some loose world stamps, UK military/aviation items inc.
               wartime covers, club book remainders, etc. Worth checking through. þ ..            50.
