Hi there folks,







I am doing a bit of re-organizing and have this 3' x 20" x ½" deep mass of US stamps on paper that I would appreciate some feedback on. Is there different type of US mixtures? If so what would this one best be described as? What would be the fair price to put on these 275 grams, or would an auction starting at postage charge + $1 bids be the better alternative? I haven't touched it other than to weigh it this afternoon, so I would consider this unchecked because I bought it from an Art-guy who keeps his eyes peeled for stamp lots at Estate Auctions for me.

Any thoughts? I look forward to any and all feedback, and Thank-you for reading this thread!

Have a Good One,
Skilo54

Perhaps Google for "US Kiloware" to get an idea.
What I like about your lot, it appears that most
have been removed with ample borders,
whilst this adds to the weight, it sometimes keeps
important postmarks.

Hi there,

I appreciate the great tips and observations, Thanks for taking the time to reply to my question!

Here are some items that could possibly be from the original source for some of this kiloware, I guess folks used to cut this type of thing up?









Take Care, and Thanks Again!
