I don't actually own this stamp - I took this photo in the postal section of the History Museum in Ottawa. I have a number of forgeries but I'll never own the original!  |

Never say never! You never know, you might just one day come across a horrible ugly spacefiller that you'll decide to buy (but keep the photo of the nice copy - ha ha). As a young pup, my first ever stamp show purchase was an envelope of 300 horrible ugly spacefillers, virtually all stamps that I still don't own in good condition and likely never will ....

I'll definitely keep that in mind and if I ever come across even the most tattered genuine - in my album, it shall go!

This is another thread that I thought I would bump up. I consider it my good luck to have found this when I had the resources to buy it. It would be nice to see more classic Canadian Provincial issues here.  |
