Lot 1160 Large Accumulation of Used Norway, 1863-1950s, with several thousands of stamps, housed in roughly 45 Vario-style stock pages (many double sided), and roughly 100 glassines. The lot begins with an accumulation of 1863-1868 Coat of Arms issues with Scott #s 6 (x8 at $250 each), 7 (x11 at $300 each), 8 (x55 at $14 each), 9 (x24 at $60 each), 10 (x18 at $125 each) 11 (x21 at $55 each), 12 (x26 at $55 each), 13 (x13 at $160 each) and continues with 1872-1875 Post Horn issues with #s 16 (x24 at $40 each), 17 (x20 at $85 each), 18 (x42 at $12 each), 19 (x33 at $72 each), 20 (x28 at $72 each), 21 (x22 at $72 each). The balance of the lot contains a fairly unorganized accumulation of post-1875 issues, including officials, postage dues, and more. A cursory check indicated a variety of postmark types including a few numerals, bridge types, and c.d.s. town postmarks. An ideal lot for the collector or dealer as there should be finds including various printings, shades, or other varieties. We note a few faults with some of the early stamps, still a potentially high cataloguing lot, with online photos showing a sampling and overview. Estimate C$500, sold for C$4,200.00 plus 17% buyer’s premium.
