An attractive collection of classic and semi-classic Swiss postage stamps issued between 1854 and 1940, featuring a wide range of iconic Swiss designs, including Seated Helvetia, Standing Helvetia, numeral issues, shield designs and commemorative stamps. The collection contains numerous denominations and colour varieties, with a broad selection of cancellations reflecting the historical postal use of these issues. Particularly interesting are the early Helvetia stamps, higher-denomination values and the commemorative issues from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. According to the Swiss SBK 2013 catalogue, the total catalogue value exceeds CHF 1,000. Several individual catalogue valuations are also indicated alongside selected stamps in the collection. A wonderful opportunity for collectors of classic Switzerland, Swiss postal history and traditional European philately.
