56 Canada #157 (x 12), 158 (x 8), 159 (x 9).

Could be finds for the collector with the right handbooks and equipment. 2020 Unitrade catalogue value. $712.75 $170.00
67 Canada #459,460 Varieties. Mint and used study of plate, paper, ink and tagging varieties on the 6c orange and 6c black Centennials. All identified by the consignor for Harris and Unitrade types.

See the consignor's descriptive inventory list for more info. Estimate $200.00 $130.00
68 Canada #574/2071, B4-B12. Comprehensive mint NH 1975 to 2004 period collection, all housed in four deluxe Lindner hingeless albums. 1,237 stamps, 69 souvenir sheets/miniature panes and 28 booklets in total. Not missing much to be complete for the period. The albums themselves retail for several hundred dollars new. Conservatively valued for the useable mint postage at face value only, but worth more. Total face value $819.25 $725.00
69 Canada #582-585, 582p-585p. VF mint NH investment group of 6 full mint NH philatelic (untrimmed, with full plate inscriptions and wide selvedge margins) and 6 Ottawa tagged panes of 16 of the 1972 issue 15c se-tenant Earth Sciences commemorative. Note different plate positions. 2020 Unitrade. $450.00 $65.00
70 Canada #1407ai (x 2). Two VF mint NH examples of the famous "Signature Sheet" from the "CANADA 92" international stamp exhibition. Only 10,000 issued. Printed for the CANADA 92 program, these souvenir sheets bear the marginal signature "Paul de Chomedy, de Maisonneuve". Also of note is the fact that these sheets are on Harrison Paper, a different stock than the unsigned sheet (Coated Papers). Both sheets come with the original "Lighthouse" advertising packaging. 2020 Unitrade. $250.00 $100.00
71 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 $95.00
72 Canada #1969, 1970 TRIPLE ARTIST SIGNED. VF mint NH complete pane of 25 of the 2003 issue 48c "Year of the Ram" plus the $1.25 souvenir sheet, both sheets triple signed by the illustrator/calligrapher (Rosina Li), sculptor/illustrator (Christopher Reid) and the illustrator (Jason Li). Very few of these panes/sheets were signed (it was a small side event at the stamp unveiling in Vancouver). Estimate $150.00 $70.00
73 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 $120.00
74 Canada #2110i. VF mint NH example of the rare Unitrade catalogue recognized perforation variety of the original 2005 issue "Homer Watson" souvenir sheet. The perforations that usually extend to the sheet edge above and below the stamps on the common sheet stop at the upper and lower stamp edge in this rare variety. Verified and newly listed in the 2020 Unitrade catalogue (fifteen years after the original issue date!) with extremely few examples coming to market in this time. An exceptional chance to grab what could easily become a frighteningly rare perforation variety. Estimate $250.00 $325.00
75 Canada #2847a (BK623), 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.
