Archivally fresh Baker's Dozen (13) wholesale group of the scarce identical 5c and 6c centre blocks from the 1970 "Childrens' Drawings" Christmas issue. All of the 5c blocks have the "dot between M and A" plate variety, but the 6c blocks are more interesting, as they are a mix of the full "scratch through window" type, as well as ones without the "scratch" and others with only a very short "scratch". These probably come from an original K. Bileski hoard and probably have only been handled by the late, great Kasimir, the former King of Canadian Stamp Promotion. All valued as the basic centre blocks. A great lot for the dealer/collector of modern Canada. 2021 Unitrade
