The issue years run from 1976 up to 2005. The mint stamps are almost all NH and many are in corner blocks or plate blocks.

70 Canada #768i. GHOST PRINT VARIETY. Pristine VF MNH 1978 issue philatelic pane of 50 with the first 7 columns showing distinct doubling of the name "Marguerite D'Youville" in banner at top.

VF MNH left-hand sheet margin block of eight on the scarcer LF paper of the 1979 issue 17c green Parliament definitive with perfs and tagging shifted a massive 7½ mm to the left. An eye-catching showpiece multiple with the "17" denomination at the left side rather than the right and missing completely on the two left-hand sheet margin stamps. Estimate $400.00 $170.00
72 Canada #926B. DRAMATIC MIS-PERF Pair. Mint NH dramatically mis-perforated sheet margin pair of the 1987 issue 36c "Parliament Buildings" definitive, showing parts of four different stamps on the lower stamp and parts of two stamps plus a big chunk of the margin in the top stamp. The tagging is also skewed, being in the white margins (as it should be). An eye-catching modern error. Estimate $200.00 $110.00
73 Canada #1203, 1241, 1310, 1419, 1466, 1516, 1545, 1602, 1635, 1754, 1800, 1863, 1916, 1945.

Complete sets of philatelic panes (with marginal inscriptions) are hard to assemble. Total face value $192.32. 2020 Unitrade. $559.00 $200.00
74 Canada #1395a. VF MNH complete roll of 100 of the 43c olive green Flag 1992 coil issue on DF paper, with massive strip of 25 imperf stamps about one third of the way from the start. Unitrade catalogue notes that only 3 strips of 25 have been reported - this roll expands that number to 4 as it comes from a long term holding. The imperf stamps show red "printer's rejection marks" however they were still rolled and sold. As this is an unopened roll it has also been unchecked for spacing varieties. 2020 Unitrade. $2,575.00 $400.00
75 Canada #1407ai, 1991C-1991D, 2844. VF mint NH trio of scarce to very rare souvenir sheets, consisting of: 1) A VF mint NH example of the famous "Signature Sheet" from CANADA 92. Only 10,000 issued. Printed for the CANADA 92 program, this souvenir sheet bears the marginal signature "Paul de Chomedy, de Maisonneuve". Also of note is the fact that this sheet is on Harrison Paper, a different stock than the unsigned sheet (Coated Papers); 2) The 2003 issue Canada-Alaska Cruise Ship sheet. Post Office fresh and VF MNH. These very limited edition promotional "Picture Postage®" stamps were only issued for use on the 2003 season Alaska route cruise ships and are much scarcer than the Unitrade catalogue value would suggest. The 10 undenominated se-tenant stamps in each sheet were (and still are) valid for use as first-class international letter mail. The official printing figures total 50,000 but many were probably still unsold at the end of the cruising season and destroyed. We rarely find these sheets in collections we handle; 3) A rare VF mint NH example of the recalled 2015 issue "Wrong Hoodoo" $8.60 souvenir sheet containing one $1.20 "Wrong Hoodoo. The "Hoodoo" souvenir sheet is particularly hard to find and often sells for over full catalogue. This group would make a perfect gift for the advanced Canada collector as these sheets are usually missing for most collections we see. 2020 Unitrade. $375.00 $260.00
76 Canada #1442iv, 1442v. VF MNH pristine study lot of 1992 "Canada in Space" issue varieties, with a lower right plate block showing the Black Hole variety on upper hologram stamp with black line beneath the earth and se-tenant pair with scarce Low Orbit variety showing the map of Canada cut off at James Bay. There is also a so-called "crater" variety on the same Black Hole stamp with an inclusion in the hologram. Lot also includes a single used hologram stamp and MNH se-tenant pairs with hologram at left and right. Comes with the owner's original purchase lotting sheets from years ago. 2020 Unitrade. $299.00 $65.00
77 Canada #1594iv, 1634i. Complete uncut press sheets of the first two "Birds of Canada" issues of 1996 and 1997 rolled up in the original cardboard tube, BOTH SIGNED AND NUMBERED BY THE ARTIST AND DESIGNER in the margin at bottom. These sheets contain unique layout and gutter combinations not found anywhere else. Each sheet comes with the Canada Post Corporation Certificate of Authenticity stating limited editions to 1,000 and 1,500, respectively; additionally the key Birds I sheet has the 1996 Philatelic Service Order Statement receipt showing the original (substantial premium at the time) cost of $69.00! Although there have been subsequent press sheets issued in lower quantities, in particular the first signed uncut sheet is still by far the key item in this popular area of "display philately". 2020 Unitrade. $700.00 $160.00
78 Canada #1693ii. VF MNH pane of 4 of the $5.00 Moose "Extra Moose" variety consisting of a strong offset of the brown Moose, showing a clear impression facing left on the gummed side instead of facing right as on the front. A great mate for the Missing Moose variety. Unitrade states only 200 examples have been reported. Priced as four singles. 2020 Unitrade. $400.00 $100.00
79 Canada #1838, 1885, 1935, 1971-1972, 2017-2018, 2085-2086. Complete run of all the 2000-2005 NHL All Stars hockey sheets including the three self-adhesive miniature booklet panes. All VF MNH. The 2003 set of sheets is very hard to find as #1972 was not included in either the Post Office quarterly pack or annual collection. Modern undervalued items to be sure! 2020 Unitrade. $161.00 $70.00
80 Canada #2844, 2847a (BK623). Rare VF mint NH examples of the recalled 2015 issue "Wrong Hoodoo" stamps, consisting of the $8.60 souvenir sheet containing one $1.20 "Wrong Hoodoo" and the complete self-adhesive booklet pane of 6 containing two $1.20 "Wrong Hoodoos". The souvenir sheet is particularly hard to find and often sells for over full catalogue. 2020 Unitrade. $225.00 $170.00
81 Canada #2847a (BK 623), 3051a (BK 686). 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 $80.00
82 Canada #BK106a. VF complete booklet of the 33c "Greet More" Christmas 1989 issue pane of 10 on the scarcer High Fluorescence paper. Only opened to check the paper.

A very elusive FORGERY of an early US Classic. The 2021 Scott values the genuine stamp at US$13,000.00. A dead giveaway are the words "FALSCH" in tiny text in the lower corners of the stamp.
