U.S., Duck Stamps Collection, 1934-2016 (Scott RW1-RW83, JDS14-JDS24). Housed in a slip-cased Lighthouse binder on "Federal Duck Stamp Album" pages by Deaton through 2002 and in stockpages thereafter; a lovely collection of fowl, in overall sound and fresh condition; earlies are a mix of hinged/never hinged, with n.h. from RW22 onward (RW32 was slipped in behind its mount, and stuck to the page); self-adhesives included for all issues since 1998, with Junior Ducks running 2006-2016; no souvenir sheets (signed or otherwise), but 15 U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Certificates of Appreciation are included; the 2016 Trumpeter Swans--here both gummed and self-adhesive, is trading at a high premium above its $25 face, generally Fine to Very Fine with many better, a delightful collection; viewing recommended.
