Large Format Tobacco Stamps. All different selection of twenty engraved Victorian era large format federal tobacco customs and excise revenue seals. The noted weights range from 1 pound up to 100 pounds plus some additional indeterminate amount types. Seven labels in the group have full or partial plate inscriptions at top. Beautiful engraving and lathework! These are much scarcer than the long, thin seals and labels that we see more often. Undervalued as they aren't listed in the printed van Dam revenue catalogue but are listed in detail in the comprehensive and free online "Catalogue of the Federal Tobacco Stamps of Canada" by Christopher D. Ryan. Estimate =
