22  U.S. U.S. USED ACCUMULATION - about 80,000 used regular, commemorative and back of the book stamps, in glassines and on small stock cards, most identified by Scott #, 1894 to about 1985; a thousand or so of the 2 cent 1894-95 issue were noticed including Type I and II triangles, many of the Washington-Franklin issues of the 1910-20 period with many that do not appear to have been seperated by perf as some perf 10's (e.g., Scott #'s 437 or 475) were noticed; the same situation with the 1922-30 regulars so the odds are you will find some 599A and 634A; this lot will require an intermediate knowledge of perfs and watermarks to properly identify the stamps of this period; the vast majority of the stamps will be post 1940; condition will be mixed and duplication to a couple hundred each is not unusual; at our estimate of about two cents per stamp this may prove to be a rewarding treasure hunt (ENV 1,750-2,000) -----
