I got my souvenir sheets towards the end of the show, later in the afternoon, and waited no more than 20 minutes.

Do you think the burnout from the CAPEX 1978 souvenir sheet (756a) with a quantity of 3,800,000 led to less interest in the Canada
World Philatelic Youth Exhibition 1992 souvenir sheets (1407a and 1407ai) with quantities of 400,000 and 10,000?

Very nice cancelled souvenir sheet. Is it a first day cover or a first day cancelled souvenir sheet? It appears to be on cover due to the bottom left tied cancel, but I am not sure. I have only seen another first day cover of this variety at CAPEX '96 and it was in the stock of the Montreal stamp dealer who publishes the Darnell Canada stamp catalog.

That is a 1st day, issued at the opening day of the world youth exhibition. The real envelope is much larger than what you can see on the scan

And in the US, there are lots of people who invested in the US Capex issue and there are still tons of them floating around.
