Wildly interesting FDC collection of 74 items from the Canada 2014 Komagata Maru (Unitrade #2732) issue, in a variety of specialized formats, all having Vancouver Day of Issue postmarks. The lot includes 22 single franked photocopied articles on card stock highlighting the challenges of the voyage, racism, and arrival of the Komagata Maru passengers; 2 illustrated bookmarks; 4 program guides for events in Vancouver and Surrey; 9 postcards with a contemporary view of the C.P.R. Pier of Vancouver from 1927; with the balance of the lot having portions of the booklet cover created as a cachet, along with the stamp and FDC postmark. A must have for any first day cover collector, as these might be fairly scarce to attain elsewhere as were only made by a collector for his own purposes. Surely worth our low estimate. Estimate =
