Consign it to an auction house!

It's only the lower 1/2 of the series - good luck selling that many of 1/2 a rather common series.
Wallpapering your stamp den with them
Better yet - show them off to allyour friends
OR, as the man suggested, use it for wallpaper. You'll need a ton of hinges and it will take a long time, but it will be cheap wallpaper. And for heaven's sake do not use Dennison hinges, since the hinges would cost a lot more than the wall paper.

Dennison Hinges? Heck no, don't use them. The hinges won't stick well enough. Buy the newer hinges out there. They'll stick to everything and not let go!
Would love hinges that don't leave a mark! Would save me so much time, money, and aggravation not having to buy mounts (though I would still use them for anything above $5.00 or so).
They make great wallpaper - I ended up with hundreds of sheets of German inflation issues in order to get some stuff I really wanted back in the 80's.
I thought I could get rid of them at a 3 day show and stuck a "Best bargain of the Show" $25 sign on them. I went home with them. Stuck them at the bottom of an auction box with some better albums on top to get rid of them.
These are among the most seen Monaco stamps, so it would be a challenge to get rid of 10 of these stamps, let alone a few 1000... Perhaps it's not such a bad idea to use them as wallpaper, although I am afraid a room covered in these stamps would not be a very nice place to stay in. I think I would become very anxious and nervous in it.
Jansimon,
It's not so bad. Come in grab the mail, have a seat and relax.
Dumped in my lap? Dump it into the recycle bin.
Send them to the Holocaust Project! There are sooo many stamps out there that have been saved for eons and never have been in a collection nor ever will!
Came across this description for a lot of bundleware on the Sandyfayre auction site.
"MONACO - 1958 CENTENARY OF APPARITION - BUNDLEWARE! Gigantic accumulation of 1f to 12f values (SG 598/604) in bundles, very fine unused no gum, includes se-tenant horizontal strips (SG 602a). Very fresh condition, an incredible amount of stamps for your money, make your own original wallpaper... (65,000+ stamps)"

I had never seen an auction company suggest using stamps as wallpaper before and it struck me as funny.
Assuming about a $200 minimum bid based upon their suggested bid range, that works out to about 0.003 cents apiece for each stamp. What a deal!
What would you do with this lot if it was dropped into your lap?
