'Past performance is no guarantee of present performance' , so hopefully these are in the right thread. A nice little block of NWF from 1979

I feel guilty for your confusion NWF National Wildlife Federation = US Canadian Wildlife Federation = Canada Canada should always have "Canadian Wildlife Federation" as text on the stamp, but will have the NWF copyright logo included as well. (Indicating the collaboration) This is how I understand it. Sorry for any confusion caused.

I'm going to try to put together a Ca. cindy bunch for a donation auction.No promise as to when that happens as I'm in the middle of at least a dozen projects and that will be another although one I will enjoy a lot more than just moving stamps to new pages.I just glanced and see some cwf and easter seals sure there's more there.

For those who like the London to London design, cinderellas might be your best shot - a genuine copy of this semi-official airmail sold a few years ago for $38,000! Ryan

Having seen the original stamp in the link Ryan provided , "crude" appears an understatement.

I would love to get my hands on one of those London to London stamps, but looking at the price tag I likely never will! Though one of those Cinderellas might be the closest I would ever come, they are indeed pretty crude! I have seen a few replicas on eBay, with blue substituted for the green that look, otherwise, pretty close to the original. If I can find a link to the replica I will post it.

Nice additions! For those Quebec sports labels, I've now seen 40 different varieties. All of them beautiful works of art. It's a nice round number for a complete set, but who knows, maybe more will show up...

G'day Froggie, I generally assist where possible, but I don't think either are Canadian. I spent some time with the Blue, but I couldn't interpret the veiled insult, Elizabeth 1st not Elizabeth 2nd ? I thought probably a Scot propaganda label. I saw some similar labels (colour print) that was used to promote Robert Buns to appear on a stamp. The Bovine label looks American.

Froggie, time line for the Telegraphs are 1915-1947
Your two do not seem to be listed, perhaps you should contact the author, I'm sure he may be pleased to hear from you.
Unless our resident Guru "CindyCan" chimes in, with something I have missed.

I believe Rod is correct in his assesment of origin. The below is taken from the website of the Washington, DC-based International Dairy Foods Association: The name change (from "Milk" to "Dairy") apparently took place in 1939.

I'm not a big Cinderella collector, but here's a few titbits that have been filed in one of my boxes of things for a while. First is from Barkville B.C. obviously celebrating 100 years since the discovery of gold there. Barkville was named after and English prospector, Billy Barker, who struck gold in 1861. Barkerville quickly became the hub of the Cariboo Gold Rush. Since the first gold claim was 1861, these labels must have been printed 1961. But other than that I know nothing about them. The are printed on blue paper, with dark brownish ink. I have 4 blocks of 25 (5x5), well almost, the upper right block is missing two stamps from the top right corner. The four blocks appear to make a sheet of 100, as evident by the straight edge around the outside. Here's the lower right block. Next is a block of seals to 'Help Crippled Children' from 1970 as printed on the labels. I have a couple of loose singles as well. Finally a sheet of Easter Seals labels from 1972. Looks like 4 designs on a sheet of 28 labels (4x7). If anyone has any more info on any of these items post away!

Canadian Easter Seals attract an umbrella Catalogue #cc4130 (Page 111) images up to 1962
Catalogue recommends specialty catalogue "Canadian Catalogue of local, provincial and national Easter Seals" BES available on CD
Canadian Easter seals are often recognised by the Lily Emblem, a link with Canada and charity.

Here's a couple waiting for me to put in their place The block of four is a Scottish Nationalist Party propaganda label. I think it dates from the 1960s, but I am not sure. The reference "I NOT II" refers to the fact that the monarch referred to as Queen Elizabeth I was never actually Queen of Scotland, so the current monarch, commonly referred to as Queen Elizabeth II, is thought to be Scotland's FIRST Queen Elizabeth. It is quite a thorny issue between the Scots and the English, especially the Scots who favor Scottish Independence. The stamp is also known in purple on white paper.

Quick note on the Barkerville stamps. I have a cover dated 1971.
But it's not an envelope, it's a souvenir letter that opens up to read thus:

Cool Barkerville souvenir! Shame the cinderellas aren't tied to the cover. Though, this doesn't look like the type of thing that would be forged or doctored to increase the value.
