Lot of Better Early First Day Covers, from the 1930s to the early 1970s (ie. no Canada Post), with many different cachet makers, cachets we rarely see, better issues (ie. 1934 10c Loyalists Statue, 1963 $1 Export, set of 1967 Centennials, etc.), Saskatoon, Calgary, Ottawa, Vancouver and Edmonton Exhibition FDC, and more. Scans only show a small example, careful examination should reveal some "finds". (Image)
