German East Africa Extensive Cancellation and Study Collection
Extensive and valuable primarily Used collection with emphasis on cancellations of the Colony and arranged by Issue, housed in one Lighthouse stock book which helps show the variety of the group. Commencing with the first issue with (Mint 4, Used 21), second issue ( 10 Mint including a Gutter Block of Four, 3p. on 5pf and Used 43), 1900 Yacht to 40p with (Mint 8, Used 73), 1r. to 3r. with one each Mint and Used 43 examples, the Heller values, both unwatermarked and watermarked are extensive with some 253 stamps to the 60h, with (1r. Mint 1, 3r. Mint 2, Used 3), the collection was formed to show the different town cancels and while there maybe a few spurious items, there are many that have pencil notations, some with guarantees, this was a knowledgeable collector who sort out nice examples, with many of the items on piece, there are also a few Occupation and Local issues with many of the Mint examples are Never Hinged. Overall in excellent condition, inspection is recommended to appreciate the value, time and effort that was taken to compile such a group. A wonderful lot for the specialist to add to any existing group or strengthen a medal collection.
