Lot 3223 BK/   

Canada, Booklet Panes, Outstanding and Extensive Booklet Pane Collection, 1898-2011, a massive collection of hundreds of panes beginning with Scott 77b and going to 2011 all in two well packed volumes and arranged in Unitrade catalogue order.

Very strong King George V period with varieties galore into the hundreds of dollars each. We note that the Admirals are exceptional as is the balance through Q.E. II. Two purchase orders were present for a small part of the collection, and they totaled in excess of $4,300. We also see Plate inscriptions, different labels and much more. This lot deserves attention, and you will be rewarded. Quality is excellent with but a very few faults, primarily Fine to Very Fine. Huge catalogue value., ex Global Collection.
