Canada’s first stamp is the three penny beaver printed on laid paper, Scott #1. We offer two lots of this popular collectible. One is a pair of these stamps in the highest quality with deep rich colour, light postmark and large, even margins (#1, lot 403). The second (lot 404, Scott #1a) is from the corner of a sheet with the original huge margins. With a centrally applied target cancel, this stamp has tremendous visual appeal. Less than a handful of corner marginal examples have survived.
