Auction 52
Lot 138 /o Spain, 1850-1947, strong mint and used collection, rich in classics, with some rarities, hinged or in mounts on Scott album pages. Later issues are mainly mint, with a nice range of issues including back-of-the-book, locals and Revolutionary issues. There are many expensive issues here (the first page alone catalogs over $4,000), including #9 (mint no gum, 4 margins, c.v. $2500) and #CB18a (mint NH, c.v. $4,250, not signed), and many (mostly early) issues cataloging $150 or more. Mostly clean with only a few faults noted, the early classics are nearly all decent salable examples, imperfs usually with 4 margins (especially on the more expensive ones), generally Fine to Very Fine. A sampling has been imaged. Scott $12,500+. Estimate $1,000 - 1,500. |
