1927 Canberra 'Jumbo' Booklet with 5½ blocks of 8 (2x4) remaining 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 states "Several are recorded, most with some panes of stamps removed". 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'. (Image1) (Image2)
