Lot 130: WW Collection of Stamps in 'The Victory Stamp Album' and Stock Pages
This philatelic lot consists of an assortment of international and domestic postage stamps. The primary housing is a blue hardbound album titled The Victory Stamp Album, which bears a red oval label on the cover. Visible contents include a selection of Greek issues in denominations of 4, 5, 7, 15, and 50, featuring portraits, mythological subjects, and architectural ruins. Additionally, the collection includes loose stock pages with UK decimal commemorative stamps, notably the 1976 A Merry May Morris Dancers issues in 14p and 18p denominations, alongside 22p floral designs. The stamps are presented in both mint and used states, with some accompanied by handwritten slips for identification.
