I picked up a sheet of the 25c reprint, on paper with white gum (the original had greenish). On my new example, the background shade is more brown than the green that is on the original printings I have. I wonder if all the reprints are like this or is it just a variance throughout the printing. Original at top, reprint below.  |

For the record, Benificial should be Beneficial, with a second E, but I cannot change the title due to buggy software  |

Does anyone have info or list on release dates maybe from Canada Post for issues after 1996  I try to put stamps in order as they were released as per Darnell format.It is confusing but no more so than Unitrade which insists definitive issues are all released together even years apart.And don't even get me started on Minkus publications who followed no order at all.I simply write Scott # next to stamps so it will make sense to those who follow me. |

The definitive checklists at adminware.com list the release date for all varieties of Canadian definitive stamps issued since the QEII Karsh portrait series of 1952. Check out the lists here; www.adminware.ca/stamps.htm |
