131 Canada #274/301. All F/VF mint NH duplicated dealer stock of hundreds, consisting of late period (1947-1950) GeoVI issues. Some commemoratives noted in the mix but the bulk of the value is in the "Postes/Postage" and "no Postes/Postage" definitive sheet form and coil definitives. Estimate $120.00 $32.00
132 Canada #454/465A. Massive used accumulation of low to high value Centennial definitives, offered as received and unchecked by us for varieties. Neatly arranged on 171 double-sided Vario stock pages (mostly 8-row, retail $2 each) in 3 like-new heavy duty D-ring binders. With some quick math this lot contains in the neighbourhood of 15,000 stamps and this could be a treasure trove for someone looking for paper types and tagging varieties. Huge potential catalogue value! Estimate = $350.00 $210.00
133 Canada #544x. VARIETY (BK70c part pane). VF mint NH example of the 8c slate "Library of Parliament" Centennial definitive, in the fourth row of the partial booklet pane of 18 from Unitrade #BK70c, short printed at right. Still mounted on the original album page. Unitrade describes the error as "part of design missing from right margin 8c stamp in 4th row". Se-tenant with regular stamps above and below. Only about 100 examples of this eye-catching error are known. Unitrade is $250.00 for the intact error booklet but it's the single stamp that's the key. This may be an earlier state of the "short printing". See lot #90 from bidboard 1920 for another example. Estimate = $150.00 $90.00
134 Canada #1172, 1172d. Two VF MNH plate/corner blocks of four of the 45c "Pronghorn", including the better perf 13.1 variety from the 1988-1990 Mammal medium-value definitive series. An elusive value from an increasingly popular series. 2022 Unitrade = $156.25 $70.00
135 Canada #1764b. VF MNH example of the 1998 issue 45c Xmas Angel in the very rare perf 13.1 x 13.6. Fewer than 500 mint examples of #1764b are known. 2022 Unitrade = $500.00 $150.00
136 Canada #2011b. VF mint imperforate pair of the 2003 issue 49c "Flag over Edmonton" booklet stamp (Fasson paper) with full inscription tab at bottom, proving conclusively that this is an ex-booklet pair. Normal pair with die cuts included for comparison. A scarce modern error. Valued as a regular imperf pair but the inscription should be worth a good premium. 2015 Unitrade = $200.00 $100.00
137 Canada #2045i-2048i. Complete set of 2004 "Write Me, Ring Me" issues consisting of four different special cards, each containing a souvenir sheet of 2 stamps and a phone card good for 15 minutes. There were only slightly more than 10,000 complete sets of these folders issued in total. Many of the butterfly (impossible to find) and dog (almost as hard to find) thematics have since been gobbled up by the topical market. These sets have been increasing and will increase greatly in price in the next few years. All still sealed in the original Canada Post packaging. 2022 Unitrade = $200.00 $120.00
138 Canada #2299f, 2305f, 2366c. Ten archival quality VF MNH complete sets of the limited edition gold, silver and bronze "Vancouver 2010" overprints in the selvedge of three different Olympic souvenir sheets. A real sleeper set, probably the scarcest of all the Canada 2010 Olympic philatelic issues. Sure to increase in value due to the international appeal of Olympic topicals. All still sealed in the original Canada Post packaging. 2022 Unitrade = $650.00 $210.00
139 Canada #2586. Canada Post THANKS/MERCI! Picture Postage, Card and Pin Complete Kit. Complete Canada Post thank you "kit" consisting of a small presentation box containing two VF condition intact mint examples of the VERY limited edition booklet of 12 of the Permanent "THANKS/MERCI!" Truck and Rainbow design Picture Postage stamp, issued on November 30th 2020, ONLY TO CANADA POST EMPLOYEEES, plus a thank you card and matching rainbow pin. The booklets are very elusive and we've only just begun offering any for sale. While recognized and reviewed in numerous philatelic journals, Unitrade has yet to create an individual listing for this stamp, so we have used the Unitrade catalogue number for the frame design as our stamp reference. Two booklets are perfect for display purposes (front and back). Estimate = $200.00 $375.00
140 Canada #2845, 2847a (BK623). Hoodoos Booklet. Two unaddressed and uncacheted First Day Covers of the 2015 issue UNESCO World Heritage Sites with mis-identified "Hoodoos" booklet stamps, plus the rare recalled $7.20 self-adhesive booklet of six x $1.20 stamps which includes two of the "Hoodoos" stamps. Withdrawn from post offices in a panic by Canada Post, not many reached private hands. The covers have different cancels in red and black from the same Mississauga, Ontario Post Office, #104368 in Central Parkway Mall, which is a verified Canada Post outlet so the Unitrade warning about manipulated dates does not apply.

(Land and Sea Post) overprint on the 15c brown "Dog Sled and Airplane" airmail issue, perf 13.8 x 13.8. These overprints come in compete settings (panes) of 25. In this block you will notice very poor overprint spacing and some VERY light and incomplete impressions of the doble bars that are supposed to block out the "AIR MAIL" text at the sides. A nice little plating multiple of this slap-dash provisional. Unitrade is $236.25 as nine VFNH singles. 2021 Scott Classic US$153.00= $191.25 $32.00

220 Canadian Provinces - Newfoundland - 203 mint all NH, a duplicated dealer's stock, but no more than 5 of each. Clean lot. Figured @ lowest 2022 Unitrade values and no premium added for NH, so a very conservative Unitrade value = $411.00 $140.00
221 Canadian Provinces - Nova Scotia #2, 3. Used examples of the two distinct shades of the 3d blue Nova Scotia imperf issue, consisting of the 1851 bright blue printing and the later dark blue printing. Each has a small paper fault noted for the record. 2022 Scott US$525.00= $656.25 $65.00
222 Canadian Provinces - Nova Scotia #4. F/VF appearing used example of the 1851 issue 6p yellow green imperf. Moderate and unobtrusive grid postmark. Small thins noted on the AIEP certificate. Still a very decent looking pre-Confederation classic. 2015 Scott US$825.00= $1,031.25 $90.00
223 Canadian Provinces - Nova Scotia #8. Decently centered, fresh and F/VF mint OG (disturbed) part sheet of 49 of the 1860-1863 issue 1c black Victoria. Note two complete "American Bank-Note Co.

225 Chile - Chile and Peru Collections. While not complete, these two country collections are usefully comprehensive, both perfect candidates for expansion and eventual completion. The Chile section contains 675 stamps with a Scott value of US$492.15 and the Peru contains 858 stamps plus 2 souvenir sheets with a Scott value of US$925.55. 2022 Scott US$ 1,417.70= $1,772.12 $160.00

All King George V issues appear to be the 1912 issue with Multiple Crown CA watermark. 2019 Barefoot "British Commonwealth Revenues" Tenth Edition catalogue value is for the stamps alone but they are worth much more used on full documents. 2019 Barefoot £4765 = $6,552.04 $250.00
227 Cyprus - Mostly used collection of 172 stamps, 1880 to 1967 period issues, the majority still mounted on the original Scott Specialty album pages.

228 France - Collection of 370 different mint, some NH, 1904 - 1964 issues, in hingeless mounts in a French album.

The "new issue" face values are 3,548 francs ($781.32 CDN) and 771 euros ($1,113.72 CDN) for a total of $1,895.04 CDN! Owner's 2020 Scott US$4759.00= $5,948.75 $725.00

232 Gibraltar - Collection. Mostly used collection of 120 stamps, 1886 to 1969 period issues the majority still mounted on the original Scott Specialty album pages. While there are not that many complete sets, there are a useful number of earlier and higher value singles noted. Excellent basis for expansion. 2022 Scott US$1,101.60= $1,377.00 $75.00
233 Great Britain #1. on Cover. The famous 1840 issue "Penny Black" on 1840 folded letter to Reading. Deep shade with indistinct red "Maltese Cross" cancel. December 13th (?) 1840 Reading receiver on reverse. 2021 Scott for #1 on cover US$750.00= $937.50 $150.00
234 Great Britain #1, 2. Fine appearing used duo of the world's "First Issues" consisting of the 1840 issue Queen Victoria "Penny Black" and the scarcer "Two Pence Blue". Margins full to just in, red and black Maltese Cross cancels respectively. Unchecked for plates. The #1 is sound, while the #2 has a small marginal thin at upper right. Great start to a GB or Worldwide collection! 2022 Scott US$1,325.00= $1,656.25 $210.00
235 Great Britain #3. Complete Reconstructed Sheet. Used group of 240 examples of the 1841 issue "Penny Red" imperf, faithfully reconstructing an entire sheet by corner letter position. On the whole a very decent quality offering. The actual individual plates and shades have not been identified so there's lots of potential additional upside for the collector willing to further study and plate each stamp. Valued by Scott catalogue as basic stamps. 2022 Scott US$7,800.00= $9,750.00 $400.00
236 Great Britain #3. Numbered Maltese Cross Duo. Two used examples of the 1841 issue Penny red imperf, both with premium London numbered Maltese Cross cancels, numbers #10 and #12. A sound and Fine pair, each with legible and decently struck postmarks. 2021 Scott Classic US$675.00= $843.75 $80.00
237 Great Britain #3. Scarce Multiples A scarce used block of four and an ever scarcer used block of six of the 1841 issue Penny Red imperf. The two upper stamps in the block of four are thinned but the balance of the stamps in the two blocks are sound. Considering that only multiples up to blocks of four are valued in Scott Classic, the lot has been valued as two blocks of four and an additional two singles. 2021 Scott Classic US$765.00= $956.25 $140.00
238 Great Britain #4. Maltese Cross Trio. Three used examples of the 1841 issue 2 Penny Blue, all with premium Maltese Cross cancels. One stamp has a plain Maltese Cross cancel, while the two others have much scarcer London Numbered Maltese Crosses, numbers #2 and #8. A sound and Fine group, all with legible and decently struck postmarks. 2021 Scott Classic US$2,050.00= $2,562.50 $140.00
239 Great Britain #4, 4a. MULTIPLES. Three used strips (2 x strips of four and one strip of nine) of the 1841 issue 2 Penny blue imperf. Uneven margins on all the pieces but still very rare multiples. Scott Classic values strips of THREE at US$425.00 per strip, so strips of four (AND NINE!) should be worth a substantial additional premium. Estimate = $1,000.00 $130.00
240 Great Britain #5. VF appearing used example of the 1847 issue 1sh pale green embossed imperf with vertical silk threads. Margins well clear to huge on all sides. Some minor splitting along the vertical silk security thread does not detract from the much nicer than usual appearance of this difficult early high value imperf. 2022 Scott US$1,000.00= $1,250.00 $160.00
241 Great Britain #33. (Plates 86, 179, 212).

242 Great Britain #33. Plates on Cover Plus Extras. Nearly complete run of "Penny Red" plates (missing only plates #77 and 225) on cover, plus a couple of additional covers thrown in for good measure. Collected over decades, this group represents a near life-long quest to complete a set of plates of these popular GB Classics. Conservatively valued by Scott Classic catalogue, which is a general basic valuation for the most common cancels and usages. An excellentr candidate for further research and expansion. 2021 Scott Classic over US$3,400.00= $4,250.00 $575.00
243 Great Britain #58. PLATE #9. Sound and Fine used example of the RARE PLATE 9 of the 1870 issue ½p rose "Bantam" cancelled with a clear strike of the "132" barred numeral postmark (Brighton). The plate number is clearly visible at right. Unquestionably a plate 9! 2022 Scott US$850.00= $1,062.50 $230.00
244 Great Britain #111-122. Fresh and VF mint complete set of all twelve Queen Victoria "Jubilees", 1887-1892 period issues. Mostly LH (a couple of values with light pencil notes on gum), this is a superior quality offering of these late Victorian era issues. 2022 Scott US$653.20= $816.50 $875.00
245 Great Britain #142, 209. Used examples of the 1902 issue £1 blue green Edward and the 1929 issue £1 black GeoV UPU commemorative. Both stamps have small faults (the #142 has a damaged upper right corner and the #209 has a rounded lower left corner). More than acceptable "spacefillers" that you can swap out and upgrade at a later date. 2021 Scott Classic US$1,500.00= $1,875.00 $260.00
246 Great Britain #166/2613.

247 Great Britain #U1. The 1840 issue 1d Mulready envelope, plate A162, used, addressed to Sherborne, Dorset. Maltese Cross cancellation in black with "Ringwood/Penny Post" two-line line postmark in black on front. "RINGWOOD AU 8, 1841" transit postmark on reverse with "SHERBORNE AU 9 1841" receiver.

248 Great Britain #U3. F/VF used 1840 issue 1p black "Mulready" letter sheet. Neat Maltese Cross cancel. A very respectable example of the world's first pre-paid 1 penny letter sheet. 2021 Scott Classic US$500.00= $625.00 $100.00

Clean and diverse offering of 194 mostly different 1967 to 2008 period British Post Office produced mint stamp packs, consisting of individual set Presentation Packs, limited edition 3-D packs, stamp show issues and annual collections.

259 Iran #90/695. Study collection of mint and used 1894-1925 issues, 263 stamps neatly laid out on six 7-row Hagner pages. The majority of the overprints are likely forgeries (as per the many Scott footnotes) and thus sold 'as-is'.
