Canada #364 5c Grey and Red House On Fire, 1956 Fire Prevention Week, A VFNH Example With Dramatic Shift of the Vignette

A very fine NH example of the 5c greenish slate and vermillion Fire Prevention week issue, showing the red vignette shifted all the way over to the right, with the flames touching the bottom of the The"5". Unitrade does not list shifts like this, but they are not common, with a shift this prominent only turning up in every 200-300 examples. A reasonable estimate would be $5. A normal stamp is included for comparison. The stamp offered here grades 80 as follows:

Margins/centering: 50/70

Paper freshness: 5/5

Colour: 5/5

Impression: 5/5

Absence of visible paper flaws: 5/5

Perforations: 10/10
