Hospital issues incl 1½d (69), 3d (65), 6d (34), 1/- (78), 2/- (152) & 6/- (58). All useful for shades & varieties. An extremely clean & worthwhile lot in good cond. Elsmore's total cat. val for hospital stamps is $6500+ Because of the complexity of cataloguing the low value duty stamps we have not attempted to calculate the catalogue value but needless to say, we estimate it to be $3500 to $5000+. A lovely lot with many fine pages suitable for exhibit. Should this lot not sell, it will be divided into these 5 smaller lots as below.
