Lot 93 Canada BABN Test Booklet & Coil "Baby Sisters" Essay Brown-Red Baby Sisters, 1966 Centennials, A Very Fine Complete Test Block Of 10 With Davac Gum

A very fine complete test pane of 10 of the brown-red Baby Sisters essay from the 1966 Centennial test printings with DAVAC gum. According to Harris there were a handful of multicolour test sheets produced by BABN and this block would have come from one of those sheets. These were the test printings conducted by BABN that led to the production of the first integral booklet, BK56, which was printed in 2 colours with the new Gobel press. This appears to be a complete test pane of 10, just like the issued BK56.

Our Best Estimate of the value of this pane, based on the scarcity of the singles is $250.
