1927 Canberra "jumbo" booklet of 3½ of the eight marginal panes of 8 (2x4) stapled in the upper margins with backing paper of the same stock as the issued Canberra booklets, minor rust around the staple otherwise remarkably fine. Rare. [Geoff Kellow at page 63 states "Several are recorded, most with some panes of stamps removed". In fact, this is only the second complete example we have recorded. Long considered a 'mystery' issue, perhaps of private manufacture, Kellow goes on to state that these booklets were prepared by the Post Office: a Post Office memorandum states "...these will be in strips of 8 fastened into lots of 80 to represent the number in the whole sheet". If the Post Office could call a Registration Envelope a 'Registered Letter', it could call a block a 'strip']
