Canada #711 10c Multicoloured Lady's Slipper, 1977-1982 Floral & Environment Issue, A Very Fine NH Complete Field Stock Sheet of 100 on NF/DF Paper

A very fine NH complete field stock sheet of the 10c multicoloured Lady's Slipper stamp from the 1977-1982 Floral & Environment Issue, printed in lithography and engraving. Printed on NF/DF Abitibi paper.

Complete sheets of this issue are becoming more elusive over the years. This is a fantastic issue to get into, as the paper varieties have not received the same amount of attention that the earlier Caricature issue has. Unitrade does not list sheets, but as 100 singles the value is $25 for very fine NH.

The scan shows the selvedge on the right being slightly cut off, due to the sheet not fitting completely on the scanner bed. However, you should be aware that the margins around the sheet are as full and even as what you see on the left.

The sheet offered here grades 75 as follows:

Margins/centering: 45/70

Paper freshness: 5/5

Colour: 5/5

Impression: 5/5

Absence of visible paper flaws: 5/5

Pane edges: 10/10
