Extensive collection in eleven Hagner albums with a huge array of material but most of it is at the lower end of the scale and with plenty of duplication. The strength is in the few hundred covers where we noted registered, express & Priority Paid items. Condition is rather variable but there are numerous very fine to superb strikes and close inspection is sure to yield up lots of little nuggets. Includes Hopson & Tobin's work in four volumes. (1000s)

1886 (Aug 11) overweight cover to GB with remarkable franking of De La Rue 2d x12 tied by multiple strikes of the 36-Rays '85' (rated RRRR) of 'BOOLIGAL' (cds below), fine 'DEFICIENT POSTAGE ("1/6")/FINE ("1/6")' handstamp. [Both Hopson & Tobin and Hugh Freeman state that Booligal (1) opened 7.3.1861 & closed 30.9.1865, and that Booligal (2) opened 7.3.1866. The 36-Rays '85' would have been issued in 1861, and the rating suggests it was not used after the re-opening, when the unrated 16-Rays '35' was introduced. However, here it is, used 21 years after the first office closed. Curious] (Image1) (Image2)
