Lot 62 Canada #1264-1271 39c & 50c Multicoloured, 1990 Norman Bethune - 1991 Art Canada, 4 Canada Post Sealed Packs Containing VFNH Pairs and Blocks With Type 5a Style Philatelic Service Card Inserts

4 Canada Post sealed packs containing VFNH pairs and blocks of the 39c & 50c multicloured stamps from the 1990 Norman Bethune - 1991 Art Canada issues with type 5b style Philatelic Service card inserts . These packs are entirely different than anything I have previously seen, prior to just a few months ago, when I purchased the collection they came in. They are similar to the packs for plate blocks, but these ones have different insert cards. They are inscribed "Philatelic Service" Logo at the bottom and the entire design is blue on white. It is the mirror image opposite of the blue on white type 5 design found on plate block packs. Again the letterig varies in size from small to medium, and is also a sans-serif font.

Unitrade does not list these packs, but the value of the stamps inside is $11.1. The stamps offered here in these packs are all VF and grade between 75 and 84.
