I just noticed my just-received gutter product booklet of the Gemini-Cancer issue is labeled as containing ten of each of the stamps.

It contains only six of each.

This is a similar error/mistake/oddity/screw-up/money-grab/slap-in-the-face-to-collectors-and-the-public as the recent Royal wedding gutter product.

I realize the Zodiac signs issues are important (as the Canada Post stamp selection committee states) to reflecting Canada's history, culture and whatever blah-blah that fits when the committee justifies many of its its nut-bar decisions.....But, come on folks, have you never heard about proof-reading?

Yup, as collectors, they are welcome as possible valuable, rare items. The key word to being valuable is rare. It appears pride in workmanship is becoming rare at Canada Post.

Here endeth the rant.
