BABNC "Baby Sisters" Centennial Era Sample Stamps. Decades old specialized offering of the British American Bank Note Company "Baby Sisters" engraved stamp samples, printed in various colours, perforation combinations and gum types. According to the original dealer handling this material (Gary Lyon Philatelist Ltd.), due to unequal numbers of the various varieties, there are only a very limited number of these lots capable of being prepared. This group consists of six multi-coloured imperf between pairs - two with additional perforated stamps to make eye-catching triptychs. We don't often see the multicolour printings. The lot includes a colour photo of the experimental pane format. A "must have" lot for the QEII Centennial issue specialist. Estimate
