The sheet has Plate #2 plate blocks at the upper right and upper left corners, with the lower corners blank. All the stamps have perfect gum and many are VF centered. Conservatively valued as 100 x MNH singles by Scott catalogue. Considerable potential upside if re-valued by Unitrade catalogue. 2021 Scott US$2,000.00= $2,600.00 $375.00
80 Canada #244. VF mint NH block of four of the 1938 issue 50c green "Vancouver Harbour". Needless to say, this view of Vancouver has changed a bit since the stamp was issued. Unitrade is $300.00 for a VF mint NH block. 2021 Scott US$200.00= $260.00 $60.00
81 Canada #258, 259i. VF mint NH plate blocks of the 13c and 14c dull green "Ram Tank" 1942-1943 War issues. The lot consists of a lower right position #258 plate #1 block and a lower left position plate #1 block of #259i (the Unitrade listed "hairlines" variety). A great pair of blocks. 2020 Unitrade. $225.00 $55.00
82 Canada #262, 273. VF mint NH part inscription sheet margin examples of the 1942 "War" issue $1.00 Destroyer and 1946 "Peace" issue $1.00 Ferry high values. Unitrade is $187.50 for the VFNH top end duo. 2021 Scott US$127.50= $165.75 $60.00
83 Canada #268-272, 294. Plate Blocks. Fresh, sound and F/VF mint LH/NH group of 1946 to 1950 period plate blocks, all laid out on one Vario stocksheet. The #268, 269 and 270 are NH. The #271, 272 and 294 are all LH. 2020 Unitrade. $313.63 $55.00
84 Canada #454/465Biii. "PS" Perfins. PS Perfin Goldmine. Rarely offered mint NH collection of Centennial issues (missing only the 6c orange and 8c slate to be fully represented) with Province of Saskatchewan provincial government official perfins, consisting of 142 stamps in singles and blocks of up to 6. This lot is offered as received as part of a large modern mint consignment and a quick check revealed several items NOT YET LISTED in the BNAPS Perfin Handbook. The previous owner's identifications are not always accurate. A great opportunity to spend some time to identify them all and contribute to the online resource. Estimate $250.00 $280.00
85 Canada #460f. DRAMATIC MISPERF. Mint NH example of the 6c black Centennial issue (perf 12 x 12), dramatically mis-perfed. An eye-catching Elizabethan showpiece. Estimate $200.00 $50.00
86 Canada #519-523, 519p-523p 522i, 522pii, 524-528, 524p-528p, 525i, 525pi. Complete se-tenant full inscription sheets of 100 and 50 of the 1970 issue Christmas stamps, both regular and with the much scarcer Winnipeg Phosphor Tagging, featuring the much sought after identical centre blocks of four and several other semi-constant varieties. All F/VF and mint NH, some small perf separations at edges to be expected. The centre blocks (making up much of the catalogue value) are all perfect. 2020 Unitrade. $1,065.00 $130.00
87 Canada #543, 544. Study/Stock/Accumulation. Comprehensive organized and identified duplicated mint and used study/collection/stock of the 7c slate green and 8c slate QEII Centennial issues. In the lot we noted matched sets of corner/plate blocks, booklet panes, tagging, paper and gum varieties, all properly grouped by an experienced Centennial collector. The face value of the mint is $88.84 and none of the substantial quantity of used material has been catalogued. A great basis for expansion. Mint Stamps only 2020 Unitrade. $1,439.00 $190.00
88 Canada #582p-585p. VF mint NH investment group of 12 full mint NH Ottawa Tagged panes of 16 of the 1972 issue 15c se-tenant Earth Sciences commemorative. A very high quality selection. Tagged panes are MUCH harder to find than the regular panes. 2020 Unitrade. $480.00 $55.00
89 Canada #765i. Pristine VF MNH philatelic pane of 50, still sealed in Canada Post package, of the 1978 Natural Resources issue with kiss print doubling of the silver inscriptions on the "Cobalt Silver Mine" 14c stamp. Similar to other contemporary kiss prints the second impression is clearly visible behind the primary printing under magnification. Plate blocks remain unpriced in the Unitrade catalogue though would command a premium over the listed se-tenant pairs. 2020 Unitrade. $10,000.00 $2,925.00
90 Canada #1048a T-3 ERROR. VF MNH right margin block of 4 of the 32c Casgrain and Murphy issue with G2aC one bar tag ERROR with tag bars running vertically through '2'. This error appears to have the tagging shifted to the right by 6 mm but is in fact shifted to the right by 42mm as the left column stamps in the discovery sheet were completely untagged. Adminware database retail value $420.00 $40.00
91 Canada #1991C-1991D. Two complete 2003 issue Canada-Alaska Cruise Ship Sheets. 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. 2020 Unitrade. $200.00 $70.00
92 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 $80.00
93 Canada #BK111a. VF quality investment group of 10 intact examples of the scarce March 1990 issue 50c Flag booklet, all perf 12.5 x 13 (perf change). 2020 Unitrade. $500.00 $44.00

Group of Federal and local Unitrade and Van Dam listed Habitat Conservation "Duck" stamps, consisting of the 1989 issue $7.50 "Snow Geese" Federal Wildlife Habitat Conservation Stamp in a full VF mint NH sheet of 16 with full marginal inscriptions, a much scarcer format than the more readily available booklet panes of one (face value $120.00); #FWH3, the 1987 $6.50 "Canada Geese" mint booklet of one; #FWH22 and #FWH23 used on license; #FWH4 and #FWH13 used singles; and the Van Dam listed #PW2c, an imperf pair of the 1991 Pitt Waterfowl Management. A diverse and useful group. Combined 2020 Unitrade and 2017 Van Dam. $465.00 $46.00
100 Canada #FWH5c, FWH6c, FWH9c, FWH12c. VF mint NH quartet of plate blocks of four of the 1989, 1990, 1993 and 1996 issue Federal Wildlife Habitat Conservation stamps. $130.00 total face value. Much harder to find in plate block format than as booklets. 2020 Unitrade. $385.00 $55.00

Mint no gum, as are most of the remaindered issues of New Brunswick (due to a fire in the office where the safe containing the sheets was located).

138 China - PRC - Accumulation of 600+ stamps on stock pages. Some earlier but mainly after 1949. Mostly used with very little duplication. Could be some hidden treasures here, as this lot is not catalogue valued. Study the scans carefully and find those hidden treasures. Estimate $150.00 $100.00

152 Great Britain #3/291. Mostly used red box monster stock of thousands sorted into #102 dealer cards, running from early Queen Victoria imperfs up to the end of the reign of GeoVI. The condition is a bit mixed (expect faults) and there is heavy duplication of some material.

Face values tend to go up to the 1sh with the Victorias, 5sh with Edwards, 2sh6p with the GeoV and 10sh with the GeoVI material. Could be good hunting grounds for the cancel or variety collector.

There is duplication throughout, but overall a very diverse group, and a treasure trove for the topical collector.
