   found these unused words floating about:   
      
   >If it were me, here's what I'd do:   
   >   
   >1. List the whole 56lbs on ebay, set a minimum price considerably   
   >higher than $10 and set a condition that the buyer has to come and   
   >collect them (56lbs would cost a fortune to ship). With a lot that big,   
   >some sort of dealer expertise is likely called for. 56lbs of stamps   
   >represents a lot of sorting out, classifying and evaluating, something   
   >only a dealer or a retiree with a lot of time on his/her hands would   
   >have the time for.   
   >   
   >2. To tempt the dealers, scan some older samples. For example, British   
   >Empire/Commonwealth with George VI on them are becoming quite valuable.   
   >Publish these scans with the ebay listing. Make the samples older   
   >stamps if possible. Emphasize the fact that the stamps are unsorted and   
   >that there could be bargains galore and some valuable items (there   
   >could be).   
   >   
   >3. If that doesn't work, you may have to sort out the stuff. I would   
   >separate them by first day covers, album pages, and loose stamps. Some   
   >sort of division by country might then be necessary depending on   
   >quantity.
