Old-time hoard of 875x cut squares / pieces with George VI "War Issue" / "Postes / Postage" official stamps with "OHMS" or "G" / "OHMS" overprint, dated 1951 from Post Offices (primarily) in British Columbia and Alberta. A "new to market" find, clipped from official mail in an office during 1951 and stowed away ever since (originally received in an old paper bag, which we have replaced with a small box to preserve them). Unchecked as far as we know, so this should prove enjoyable to sort for both position of the perfin / overprint as well as postmarks (noted many smaller communities). Estimate =
