1859 Ferdinand II collection of over 100 mint and used stamps, neatly arranged by denomination, a solid study of the issue with mostly singles and a few pairs, showing a striking range of shades with collector's annotations attempting plate and shade distinctions, condition slightly mixed with some faults as expected, but overall superior to what is typically found in such holdings, many stamps signed including by Alberto and Enzo Diena, Raybaudi, etc., with a small group of certificates including Bolaffi and Colla, a desirable and fresh collection, mostly fine or better and ideal for expansion.
