LATHEWORK. Fine NH lower sheet margin pair of the 5c violet GeoV Admiral, "Retouched Frameline" (plates 19-20), with TYPE "D" LATHEWORK in selvedge at bottom. Both stamps have "WINNIPEG Man." precancels. The lathework is closer to 100% than the 80% more commonly reported. Unitrade notes in the introduction to the lathework section of the catalogue that "precancelled lathework blocks and singles are known. All are worth at least the value listed for the normals. Examples with rare precancels are valued much higher". This pair is valued as two basic Fine NH singles. 2022 Unitrade=
