All different towns, mostly from the western provinces (approx 5-6 are from Ontario and Newfoundland). One of the pairs has an RPO cancellation.

Unitrade values most used stamps at 20c each for this period. However the full strikes of CDS cancels should be worth a premium, especially for socked-on-the-nose, as the vasy majority of stamps from this time were cancelled with wavy lines. Consequently we estimate the value at $20. The stamps offered here grade 75-84 as follows:
