poorly centred Canadians

thanks seegod1 - I have a liking for some of these earlier C20 defs. - I like the colours too. I was sorting and it seemed there were more wide margins than I had expected, but then again likely I'd find bad centering in most countries. You'll know a lot more than me I expect regarding the quality or otherwise of stamp printing. The obvious off the wall thought would be yes, surely things improved, but I'm guessing:-)

real Canadian stamps, but not well centred......why show them  

thanks for the comments:-)     This wasn't really an attempt at serious philately - these things have been shown umpteen times before I'm sure  -  with extreme examples drawing massive financial interest - though these few have simply lost one or more margins and not half the image.         But, I was encouraged to offer this show of misalignment by something I acquired a year or so back when I bought a job lot of States stamps - some quite nice material - and one of the album pages  - as you can see from the attached - was devoted to "U.S.A. stamps badly centred".        So I thoughts to myself well, if someone else has had a go then just possibly this is an area of mild interest.           I'm waiting for other examples where the image has been halved, then I'll hopefully flog for mucho shekels.                What can I say renden  -  errors, misalignments, missing this and that - it seems that there are hordes of folk who love mistakes and imperfect labels, perhaps these might encourage you to enjoy the 'faults' of philately more  ;-);-).           These things aren't faulty enough to really float my boat, and it's true that - in particular those folk in the Strand, London  -  make much play of a well centred stamp  -    I'll  put up with a poorly centred 1c. Magenta any day if there's one going spare.           I've no idea, but do people actually collect such stamps  -  judging by the States collector who put together the few Presidents shown here I assume they do.
