42 Canada #96-103. Two complete 1908 Quebec Tercentenary commemorative sets of 8, one set mint (nice looking but most stamps with faults), the used set in sound and F/VF condition. The odd light handling bend noted for the record. 2018 Scott US$1,692.00= $2,284.20 $120.00

A couple used in the mix, a very decent "one of" collection with added interest. 2018 Scott US$2,035.50= $2,747.90 $210.00
45 Canada #104/184 plus Back of the Book. Very mixed condition mint and used selection, consisting mostly of GeoV Admiral period issues.

73 Canada #1991C-1991D. Two complete 2003 issue Canada-Alaska Cruise Ship Sheets. Both Post Office fresh and VF MNH. These very limited edition promotional "Picture Postage®" stamps were only issued for use on the 2003 season Alaska route cruise ships and are much scarcer than the Unitrade catalogue value would suggest. The 10 undenominated se-tenant stamps in each sheet were (and still are) valid for use as first-class international letter mail. The official printing figures total 50,000 but many were probably still unsold at the end of the cruising season and destroyed. We rarely find these sheets in collections we handle. 2017 Unitrade. $200.00 $80.00

These examples of the rare recently recalled $7.20 self-adhesive booklet of six x $1.20 stamps each include two of the mis-identified "Hoodoos" stamps. Withdrawn from post offices in a panic by Canada Post, not many reached private hands. This booklet duo will be perfect for exhibition and display, as the wrong "Hoodoo" is also illustrated on the booklet cover. Estimate $150.00 $90.00

Contains a VF MNH set of blocks of #311-314, the Canadian Stamp Centenary issue. Very limited issue and a key addition to any Souvenir Book collection. Only listed (and in our opinion severely underpriced) in the 2005 Darnell catalogue.
