| United States | Revenue and Private Die Proprietary Collections |
|
The following 15 lots are all derived from one very impressive U.S. collection consisting of revenues, other BOB, and possessions. The catalog value is well into the tens of thousands. The collection lacks great rarities such as R31, R99, R102 and R132-3, but is fairly complete otherwise. Condition is mixed, but it is generally much better than one usually encounters with this type of material. Faults are relatively few and minor. These lots are a rare opportunity for serious buyers. Well worth close examination. | |
