Lot 127

/o

Back of the Book Accumulation, valuable lot of hundreds of mostly mint stamps in glassines, plastic sleeves, dealer approval sheets, stock cards, etc. which including. singles, blocks and multiples U.P.S.S. # to full sheets. while the lot is in no apparent order, we were able to find many better values such as NH airmails #C1-6 plus C7-9 and C46 (sheets of 50) and a hinged #C18 block of four with plate no. Also there is an o.g. #E2, used blocks of four #JQ5 (40+ with over half having o.g.) card proofs #O1P4-O93P4, a split (into blocks of 4 and 8) imprint and plate no. block O15SD and a telegraph booklet pane 15T49B. But, by far, the best item is a complete, NH sheet of 100 of the 2¢ Shanghai overprint #K17 which, while off-centered, is exceedingly rare and has a Scott cat. value of over $22,000.00. While there are some usual faulty, the large majority (including. K2) is sound and mostly F-VF. An excellent lot and well worth your time to review.
