  • Lot# : 1311 Italy

    1828/1971: Collection Italy and areas, including the Vatican and San Marino, beginning with prephilatelic covers including "ZARA" and a range of classic duplicates including a slightly faded 1852 1 Scudo (Mi 11) signed Köhler . The collection's main strength lies in the 1930-40s issues from the Vatican and San Marino including the Vatican "Centenary of the first stamp" miniature sheet mint and the 1933 definitive set unmounted mint. San Marino begins with the 1877 series with 2c, 10c, and 40c in mint, also containing a good range of miniature sheets, including Mi 4A and 4B. The covers of Italy bear a range of censor marks from both wars, together with some postmark interest. All housed in four large albums.
