Auction: 15USA - The William H. Gross Collection
Lot: 17
S.G. #1/381, D1/141, J1-7a, The desirable and valuable mint collection of issues through 1965, all neatly housed in a single specialized Lighthouse hingeless album, hundreds of different stamps in all, nearing completion for the period, only missing a few high denomination Kangaroo issues and a few postage dues; in addition to the many high cataloging regular issues, we note a nice range of valuable and distinctive shade varieties, particularly on the 1913-30 King George V issues, plus there is an exceptional range of very scarce postage due stamps, even an occasional imprint block of four, overall condition is quite fresh and clean, all o.g., some later issues are n.h. (some postage dues with h.r.´s), nearly all are fine-very fine or better; a great basis upon which to quickly bring to completion; total catalog value will certainly be impressive, which we believe will approach or exceed $20,000.00 (Scott #1/393, C1/M7). Estimate US$ 4,400-5,500
