Italian Libya - Lot of 157 stamps with excellent historical series

An exceptional and comprehensive study-and-specialization lot consisting of 157 stamps from the Italian Colonies, with nearly full focus on Libya (Kingdom period). The collection stands out for its excellent variety of issues, ranging from the first early-20th-century overprints to the sought-after commemorative issues of the 1930s and World War II. Notable is the presence of mint (MNH/MH) specimens, which significantly elevate the overall qualitative value.

I don't combine shippings Following a recent change in international sector regulations, specifically Articles 18 and 19 of the Universal Postal Convention, starting from January 1, 2026, it will no longer be possible to send items (goods with or without commercial value) using International Registered and International Insured services, which will continue to be used exclusively for sending documents. It means that starting from January 1st, 2026, I will ship abroad only by "POSTE DELIVERY INTERNATIONAL STANDARD" starting from €25.80 without insurance.
