Brazil. Used. Dom Pedros galore! A wonderful in-depth collection with approaching 800 large Dom Pedros as well as further hundreds of the small Dom Pedro heads and later 1880s issues written-up on exhibition-style pages and work-in-progress hingeless pages housed in one packed volume. The collection starts with the 1866 series incl. dozens of 500r used, mint/unused to 200r, unusual cancels displayed value by value with a page for each, 100r pre-printing fold pair, then the 1876 rouletted issue again to 500r, 1878 roulettes with at least a dozen sets used, etc, followed by 1881/85 small heads mint and used to 200r, southern cross issues etc, as well as postage dues, newspapers with May 1889 1000r used, etc. A collection that must be viewed to appreciate the diversity of cancels in the postmark studies throughout – a spectacular array of fancy cancel types with some we have never seen before, beautifully presented.
