Substantial dealer's working cover stock of many thousands of covers and cards, nearly all sleeved and priced in twelve well filled long cover boxes and in eight binders, this stock belonged to a mid-western cover dealer who retired from the business over ten years ago because he had to stop doing shows due to old age and it has not been shown since, the marked retail prices have been meticulously tabulated for a total retail value of $109,459.00 and covers most aspects you would expect in such a stock such as States A to Ohio ($9,786), Maine to Wisconsin ($10,483), R.P.O., H.P.O. & Streetcars ($5,845), air mails, Zeppelin, fairs, etc. ($6,387), military, A.P.O. and more ($9,957), foreign ($6,671), oversized covers, which contain a lot of better material ($19,195), 20th century ($6,035), material in binders ($6,182), etc., the condition is pretty much typical of a working dealer's stock, largely fine-very fine; a "fresh to the market" stock that is all priced up and ready to retail or Ebay.
