Pre-Packaged Stamps. Very rare group of Canada Post produced and recently Unitrade listed "Pre-Packaged Stamps" marketed by the Post Office in the late 1960's and early 1970's. The group consists of 10 listed types, identifiable in Unitrade. These are complimented by a very unusual 1987 Engineering mint block of 10, in Post Office sealed packaging (first we have seen of this). The cellophane packaging is also very fragile and usually found in damaged condition. These packs are all still in all sealed, with a couple having some pencil notation put on by the previous owner. These "prototype" stamp packs are much rarer than any thematic collection, quarterly pack or annual collection. Estimate =
