ODJIG SIGNED GOLDMINE. Extremely scarce group of Daphne Odjig artist signed stamp booklets, First Day Covers and stamp pane, all of the 48c "Genesis" stamp from the 2002 Christmas issue set of three. Items relating to this particular issue are very rare signed by Odjig due to her fragile health at the time ("Genesis" was a 1976 work). The lot of signed items consists of ten intact booklets of 10, two FDCs with inscription blocks, a full sheet of 25 signed in the lower margin, a signed card with the image and a Canada Post announcement pertaining to the stamp issue celebration in Kamloops, November 18th 2002. Daphne Odjig (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daphne_Odjig) was a world-renowned, award winning aboriginal artist, born in the Wikwemikong First Nation on Manitoulin Island, ON in 1919. She passed away in Kelowna BC in October of 2016. Here's your chance to acquire an investment quality "artist signed" group, these particular pieces signed as a special favour for a family member. Possibly a unique offering. Estimate
