    A wonderful looking pair of stamps with no margins which appears to be typical for this period.  They do have hinge remnants attached.
    Related to Grade and Condition Issues – Please Read
    My photos should allow the viewers to make their own determination on the quality of a stamp’s cancel on used stamps, my personal opinion on the cancellation cannot do justice to what can see with your own eyes.
    Similarly the viewers can easily assess the condition of the stamps perfs.
    If I state my opinion of the stamp’s grade I am actually stating what grade the stamps centering will support. To this the collector must factor in the effect on grade of the stamp’s cancel, condition of the perfs, the any adjustment for its hinge status and all the other factors affecting the determination of the stamp’s overall grade.
    The stamps I am listing this Nov. & Dec. come from an album designed for
    world
    stamps issued from 1840 to just after 1900. Based on the fact that some stamps were simply laid into the album that were from the late 19-teens to the very early 1920’s one could assume that is when this collection was stopped. My estimate is that
    at least
    90% (most likely more than that) are from before 1900. Most of the stamps were mounted into the album using some form of a hinge. Many of the early stamps come from even earlier collections and as such numerous stamps have multiple hinge remnants. This has resulted in the front of most of the stamps being offered in this Nov-Dec listing look great while the backs do not come close to matching their front. When taking my photos I use my macro setting and get the lens close to the stamp. Thus my photos magnify features whether they be good or bad. I will be the first to admit most of the back photos are not pleasing, however be aware when you see the back of the actual stamps many do not look as bad as their photo.
