Notable Highlights in this Lot
• "Victoria to George VI" Strip: The top of the bag shows a fantastic chronological strip of King George VI "Definitives" (the 1937–1952 series), including the 1d, 2d, and 3d values on paper.
• Postage Due Labels (Multi-Pound Values): The brown paper fragment at the bottom features £5 and £1 "To Pay" labels. These are not standard stamps but were used for high-value unpaid postage fees. These are highly collectible and often the "treasure" in these mixes.
