Presenting the Perfectum Collection

A collection of unsurpassed quality.

The Perfectum Collection of European countries was formed during the last four decades with aim to procure the best possible condition of 20th century issues in perfectly centered mint never hinged quality.

Italy and area are notorious for gum problems such as wrinkles and toning. These issues are remarkably absent in the Perfectum collection. We do not apologize for the overuse of "pristine" and "Post Office fresh" in our descriptions. It may be repetitive throughout, but each time it is accurately describing the lot in question. Enjoy this sale! It is highly unusual to find an assembly of this high quality offered in one sale.

The Perfectum Collection was formed to be as complete as possible. A number of equally high quality singles and sets from the Italy, Italian Colonies, San Marino and Vatican City collections are included in our January 26, 2018 Box & Country Lot Auction ending just before the live auction. Each lot from these collections will have “ex Perfectum” at the end of the description. The more modern areas, all presented in beautiful Lighthouse hingeless albums, will be offered intact for outright sale on our website in due course.
