    Description

    I was only able to upload 24 images.  This album comprises 61 total hand-painted pages.  It was commissioned by Dr Charles W. Bullock c1952.  Also found along with this album was another album with 115 hand-painted covers.  39 of these covers were unlisted in my book including 4 Gutenberg bible covers 3 of them events and 1 a unique fdc.  Two of the pages I included in this listing are clearly related directly to this stamp issue and I feel confident these pages were done c1952.  This listing is for the entire album, not just the 24 images here.  There is a video of this album contained on the blog page of my website, the link leads to YouTube.  The collection was featured in an article I wrote for Kelleher's Stamp Collector Quarterly Vol X No1 1st Qtr 2024 and you can read all about it there or you can just contact me if you are serious about purchasing this album.
