Imperforate pair of peonies Canada 2262c

polarbear , perhaps @studystamps can articulate the meaning of a valuation listed in italics. Assuming, of course, that he still gets notified when tagged. As an alternative, send him an email (rharris AT adminware DOT ca).

If Unitrade follows the Scott convention, italicized values generally refer to items which are difficult to value accurately.

Thanks tomiseksj. Will do. Yes renden, I noticed that. I can’t say for sure it was an FDC, having only looked at the stamps to double check and make sure they were indeed imperforate. However, it did look like an FDC with a cachet to the side. I did not check the date of the cancellation. I’m going to suggest she bring it with her next time she visits, so I can look at it in better light and be sure exactly what we’re looking at. There were some other peony stamps with it, but we hardly glanced at them. We were actually looking for the peony book for photos of peonies for my rug hooking. The fact what appeared to be an FDC and some stamps fell out when she opened it had us both laughing! This is so typical of this friend’s organization, or lack thereof!

Jean (polarbear ), the answer to the second part of your question (the lack of a cover price) is found in the Introduction section of the Unitrade: "Where items are listed without prices, or without prices in some columns, the variety is known to exist but a value has not been established." (See the section titled Catalogue Value).
