At some point a different collector, apparently using 2002 Scott’s stamp reference books, went through much of this collection noting Scott’s stamp numbers, condition, rarity, & values. Many individual stamps valued in the several hundreds of dollars each, several over $1000 each, and some simply noted as “Rare” or “can’t be found”. Many noted as “Mint” and “Mint Never Hinged”. All these stamps will be sold as part of the large lots as noted above.
