Lot 367 Canada SC#J16/J16B 2c-3c Deep Rose Lilac & Violet Shades 19 VFNH Singles On A Variety of DF Papers, Varying In Fluorescence From 1-2, All Different From The 2c Stamps in Other Lots

19 VFNH singles of the 2c-3c deep rose lilac, violet, deep violet, pale violet, blackish violet Numeral from the 1935-1967 Fourth Postage Due Issue on a variety of df papers, varying in fluorescence from 1-2, unchecked as to exact perfs, all different from the 2c stamps in other lots. In making up these lots, I put each paper type, gum type and shade in one lot only, for a particular grade, so that if the lot consists of VFNH stamps, the stamps contained within the lot will not duplicate any of the VFNH stamps in any other lot, but some might duplicate stamps of other grades contained in some of the lots. The stamps in this lot are all on variations of dull fluorescent paper. The lot starts with a red violet on CBN-TTTT paper. Then we have a 2c and a 3c deep rose lilac on CBNE-U paper. Then there are two deep bright violet shades on CBNE-V ad CBNE-W paper. The next 4 stamps are all blackish violet or blackish lilac shades. Two of these are on pre-1952 paper (CBN-TTTTTTT and CBN-UUUUUUU). The other two are on post-1952 paper (CBNE-X), and are slightly different shades. Then we come to the violet shades. There are three pale violet stamps. The first two are on CBN-TTTT paper and are slightly different shades. The third stamp is on CBNE-Y paper. Then, there are three pure violet shades, all of which are on pre-1952 papers (CBN-HHHHHHH, CBN-QQQQQQQ and CBN-PP). The last 4 stamps are deep violet. One is on pre-1952 paper (CBN-TTTT) and the other three are on post-1952 paper (CBNE-Z, and CBNE-X).
