    1883/1970: Mixed Collection from 1930 mainly unused with a smuttering of used, beginning with an unused 60 R "BULL'S EYE",  Pedro II well filled and from 1900 only very few gaps, even covering coil and booklet issues missing from most collections. The collection is stored on Portugese pre-printed pages, so may well have been collected in Brazil. Therefore many of the earlier stamps are tropicalised or completely without gum as is the customary way of collecting in the tropics. In addition to the postage stamps there is a small run of rarely seen Telegraph stamps.
