Canada Stamp Booklet - #BK74 Caricature Definitives (1974) 3 x 1¢, 1 x 6¢, 2 x 8¢
Booklet of 6 stamps (#586a in cover)
SKU: CAN-BK074
Mint - Very Fine Never Hinged - Set of 10 Covers with MAJOR MISPERFORATION
(M-VFNH-010)
A superb collection of the 10 possible covers (complete set) of the 1974 Caricature definitives booklet (#583a in booklet #BK74a) where all of the panes are showing a DRASTIC 3 MM DOWNWARD PERFORATION SHIFT ERROR!
This results in some jumbo stamps of 27 mm on top and some tiny stamps of 21 mm at bottom (a regular stamp is 24 mm). The top of the hair on the #586as and the top of the crown on the two #593xxi are also strongly "nibbled" on the lower stamps!
A single example of these booklets with such a drastic error would already be a very rare item, but a complete set of all the possible covers is nothing less than a showpiece collectible!!!

Mint - Very Fine Never Hinged - Set of 10 Covers (+ Counting Mark) with MAJOR MISPERFORATION
(M-VFNH-009)
A superb collection of the 10 possible covers (complete set) of the 1974 Caricature definitives booklet (#583a in booklet #BK74a) where all of the panes are showing a DRASTIC 3 MM DOWNWARD PERFORATION SHIFT ERROR!

The "CF-100 Canuck" cover also shows a COUNTING MARK, which only occurred once per 50 booklets back then, and it is worth a 2.5x premium according to the catalogue, so it significantly increases the value of the error on this one!
