Private Die Proprietaries, outstanding collection of about 150 nearly all different on Aldrich album pages. The unusual thing about this collection is that it contains mainly better stamps including (all $100 & up) Match stamps RO19b, 38b, 53a, 59c, 76a, 96b, 131b, Medicine stamps RS10a, 48b, 54b, 61d, 84b, 123d, 129d, 132c, 134a, 138a, 157c, 189c, 215b, 223b, 246a, 2690b, 277c, 309, 310, 313, 314A, 315, Perfumeries RT2k, 15b, 21b, and Playing Cards RU4u. In addition there are about 95 different proofs filling spaces through the album, mostly plate proofs with an occasional die proof off card. Condition throughout is exceptional, with only the usual small flaws you'd expect on these stamps and absolutely no "dogs". Scott value of the stamps is over $7,000 and the proofs probably add another $7,500. A truly remarkable collection of this popular collecting field.
Estimate 10,000 - 15,000
