First thru Third Issue Revenue Multiples, Balance of the Curtis Collection. Predominately focused on the First Issue with a plethora of imperforates, part perforated and perforated issues, multiples including pairs, strips, blocks upwards to as large as 40, much of which is housed on black cards and mounts and identified by Scott No., we noticed a large amount of items which catalogue upwards of $300.00 to as much as $1,700.00 each piece which should add up to a large total, some highlights noticed were R1a block 4, R19a pair (7), R22b pair (2), R36a pair, R43a pair (4), R50a block 4, R54a block 8, R57a block 4 (2), R63a pair, R69a block 10, R71a block 4, R93a pair, R101a pair (3), among many others too numerous to list, also including multiples from the Second and Third Issue which make up a much smaller portion of this accumulation, as with any collection this large of multiples, faults are to be expected due to their size but most of these are presentable despite the typical faults, a few are rejoined, there are many second, third and fourth largest known multiples according to the Curtis census which can be found on http://www.thecurtiscollection.com, a lot worthy of careful scrutiny

First Issue Unused Accumulation. Mostly perforated issues with some imperforate stamps housed on stock cards and all being identified, while most stamps are unused (no gum) there are quite a few which have original gum, including many of the cheaper issues but we did notice a fair number that catalogue a few hundred plus R21c and R99c, some multiples too, some faults to be expected but much Fine or better, a scarce assemblage of unused stamps which would take years to duplicate
