This French-printed Canada/France joint issue has a palette of paper fluorescences and this lot give a good approximation of the Unitrade-listed levels. 2019 Unitrade. $667.80 $130.00
88 Canada #1630aiv. Average quality mint NH example of the 1997 issue 45c "Year of the Ox" Lunar New Year uncut press sheet (containing 12 souvenir sheets).

There was a very limited issue of this overprint (the overprinted stamp was not included in the Annual Collection or quarterly pack). The unsevered booklet of thirty is the only way to get the complete Post Office cover design, as the photograph runs across all three booklets of ten. Total face value as postage is $57.60. A "sleeper" booklet type and scarce Olympic topical. 2019 Unitrade. $240.00 $85.00
91 Canada #2080b (BK302Ab). The 50c Flag over Five scenes (#2076-2080) booklet of ten PRINTED ON GUM SIDE.

Recently renumbered and undervalued in Unitrade. 2019 Unitrade. $100.00 $42.00
92 Canada #2432a (BK443i). IMPERFORATE. Recently listed but still unpriced completely IMPERFORATE booklet pane of 6 x $1.75 "Baby Polar Bears".

93 Canada #2844. Recalled Souvenir Sheet. Recalled 2015 UNESCO World Heritage Sites Souvenir Sheet. VF mint condition example of the rare recalled $8.40 souvenir sheet of five, including one misidentified "Hoodoo" stamp. The entire printing was withdrawn from post offices in a panic by Canada Post. The Unitrade catalogue value is irrelevant with regards to the actual market value of the sheet as the recalled souvenir sheet is proving to be much scarcer than the recalled booklet. Estimate $150.00 $140.00
94 Canada #2847a (BK623), 3051a (BK686). Two recalled error booklets. The first is the 2015 UNESCO World Heritage Sites (Hoodoos) Booklet, the scarce recalled $7.20 self-adhesive booklet of six x $1.20 stamps, including two of the misidentified "Hoodoos". Withdrawn from post offices in a panic by Canada Post, not many reached private hands. The second booklet is the famous November 2017 recalled Hanukkah booklet. This booklet was recalled in a panic by Canada Post (almost within hours of the official issue date) due to the use of the Star of David as a design element, both on the cover and on the pane. The official explanation was that the Menorah is the symbol of Hanukkah, not the Star of David. The new revised booklet has a different cover and pane design. A nice modern OOPs! duo. Estimate $150.00 $65.00
