VF 1983 First Day Cover of the medium-value "Heritage of Canada" definitive with the Unitrade listed "brown background" variety of the 1983 issue 48c "Cradle" stamp. Previously thought to be a magenta missing colour error, the colour variety is actually due to an anomaly in the ink used by the printer. Includes a 2008 VGG certificate with the stated opinion "partially missing the magenta shade" - a historical artifact of this intriguing issue. Estimate
