This is the perfect lot for the collector/exhibitor needing modern used multiples. Unchecked for varieties/papers. Estimate $150.00 $100.00
84 Canada #454f. VF mint NH example of the screamingly rare (only one sheet recorded) 1c Centennial PRINTED ON THE GUM SIDE. Far and away the rarest Centennial error, missing from most Centennial collections that we handle. Here's your chance to acquire the "Holy Grail" of this popular and complex series, in top-notch condition. Undervalued in Unitrade, considering how infrequently we see it for sale. 2018 Unitrade. $1,500.00 $650.00

UNLISTED IN UNITRADE but with a footnote that the DF GT2 variety "has been reported"; this surely will be listed in future editions.

88 Canada #463vii. VF mint NH example of the 15c dull purple "Bylot Island" Centennial high value definitive, dex gum, printed on HB paper.

95 Canada #1534ii. VF mint NH upper sheet margin block of four of the unissued 1992 Xmas 52c rate stamp. This stamp was produced for a proposed rate change that was postponed until a later date.

96 Canada #1534ii, 1535ii. The rare and unissued 52c and 90c value 1994 Xmas proposed and rejected rate changes, both VF MNH. Fewer than 1,000 examples of the 90c stamp exist. The Post Office intended to increase the postal rates from 50c and 88c but changed their minds at the last minute. Somehow a few of these stamps made it onto the market. Oops! A famous modern "administrative" error. 2018 Unitrade. $800.00 $260.00
97 Canada #1693ii. VF MNH pane of 4 of the $5.00 Moose "Extra Moose" variety consisting of a strong offset of the brown Moose, showing a clear impression facing left on the gummed side instead of facing right as on the front.

102 Canada - Hanukkah Booklets. Two VF mint intact examples of the extremely scarce recalled 2017 Hanukkah self-adhesive "P" booklets of 10. These booklets were recalled by Canada Post within hours of issuance, with severe consequences threatened for any post office or outlet disobeying the order. These booklets are proving to be the scarcest recalls in recent Canadian philatelic history. The problem was the use of the Star of David as a motif, on both the front cover and on the "colour key" in the lower right corner of the pane. Estimate $150.00 $85.00
103 Canada #C6P. VF quality, archivally fresh proof in colour of issue on india paper on card of the 1938 issue 6c "Monoplane Over MacKenzie River" from printer's sheets sold at the ABNC Archives sale. Elusive GeoVI period material. 2018 Unitrade. $400.00 $110.00
