"My dad enjoyed stamps but way overdid it with the Mystic stamp stuff which investment wise is minimal. I think it is analagous in numismatics when buying products from Littleton Coin."

Yep

fould a very old album from 1914 with various stamps in the album and on Illinois Bell. I have no idea what these stamps are but I will take a deeper dive.

Other stuff:
- More Mystic catalog stamps from 1965 on (minimal value) but nicely maintained and formatted
- lots of first day stamp cars (minimal value) but nicely maintained and formatted
- Scott catalog of many stamps
sheets and sheets and sheets and more sheets of modern stamps

I am looking to sell this collection but not sure the best way to go.

If you have a little time in which to get a grip of the collection and then list it, ebay would be the obvious place to go. You'll find that natural lots come out of the sorting process,,eg the plate blocks, modern sheets for postage, old all-world albums etc.

I have never sold anything on ebay but that's a possibility. I also need to get prices on these items. I'd rather sell the collection as one as this will be a tremendous task.
