# 211-215 Photographic Proofs
|
VF condition high resolution photographs of the accepted designs of the five 1c to 10c values from the 1935 GeoV Silver Jubilee series. All mounted on thick card. These photographs, produced at the same time as the set, were produced for archival purposes and to serve as high resolution images for reproduction. Missing the 13c high value but still exceptional depictions of three generations of the Royal Family including the Princess Elizabeth, our future (and former) Queen. This was the first depiction of the future QEII on a Canadian stamp (Newfoundland beat everyone to the punch in 1932 with the 6c blue portrait of the Princess, Scott #192). Scarce supplemental items for collectors of GeoV or Silver Jubilee material. Estimate =
