At the Columbia show yesterday I came across a stock book full of first issue revenues. I didn't see any silks and no plate varieties, usually what I'm looking to cherry pick. All of the revenues were uncanceled.
This stock book was made up of all under $1 revenues. I picked out about half of the stamps in the stock book, paid $30 for about 120, or 25c per stamp. I picked the really well centered copies, about a third of which are mint hinged original gum.
I can't wait to add all the shade varieties to my collection. I'm working to put all my cancels in a separate collection. My question is this, since Scott doesn't value OG revenues, what is the value of copies like this? Do you generally figure a multiplier? 2x? 3x?
