To the Canadian specialists: Has anyone cataloged the Maritime & Newfoundland Airways labels? I'm interested in both the basic stamp or stamps, and the varieties. I am not interested in covers. Scott, Unitrade and Sanabria all ignore these labels.
I know the story, and am not interested in further research of that. I'm just looking for a research catalog effort on the labels themselves. Much obliged for any help.

Ed, I looked in my Walsh Newfoundland Specialized and nothing there. Sorry, Theron.

Morgan's Specialized Catalogue of Canadian Airmails apparently lists them. Perhaps you can borrow a copy from a philatelic lending library? I recall seeing references in BNA Topics from time to time. I printed out a few pages from Vol. 365 to stick in my Unitrade. It lists the original stamps and the reprint varieties. Whether it is accurate or complete, or not, I cannot say. The link to the volume is here, bnatopics.org/journals/1978/BNA%20Topics,%20Vol.%2035,%20No.%203,%20May-June%201978,%20Whole%20No.%20365.pdf and the material starts on page 21. Hope this helps. edit: You'll need to cut and paste the entire link, through "pdf" and paste into an address bar...if someone wants to paste in a functioning link, or make a guess as to what I am doing wrong, no hard feelings...

Thanks, guys. I got CJD's link to work. There's good information in there. I'll call the APRL on Monday and see if they can help me with Morgan's catalog.
I had hoped that the information might be in Walsh's book. Unitrade, too, since it lists every conceivable variety of Newfoundland stamps. But these "stamps" never received any government backing.
Anyway, I appreciate your efforts.
