23 VF used singles of the 10c olive shades Great Bear Lake from the 1946-1951 Peace Issue all with SON town cancellations from a vartiety of provinces, useful for tying into different mint printings to date them. These have been selected for centering and clarity, with all of them having clear dates. There is some duplication of towns. Although not uncommon, CDS used examples like this that are well centered are in the minority of used stamps. Most of these are found with heavier grid cancels, roller cancels or just heavier CDS's that are not as nice to look at. A good start to a collection of cancelations. Unchecked as to specific paper type, perf. or shade.
