sorting through about a million different Canada definitives and came upon this odd problem/question. I do not have a catalog past the year 2006 (am hoping for a new Unitrade 2014 for Xams). Anyway these two images appear to show the same set of Flag (Lighthouse) stamps issued in 2007. I have all 5 stamps .. but I have an extra, and when I went and looked for images I found the second image which shows my extra stamp (top right) along with the same four from the first image. This link (http://www.canadapost.ca/cpo/mc/per...ec_flags.jsf) from the Canada Post Office shows the first image, and I can't find the extra stamp on that site ... apologies if this has already been discussed and fell free to point me at that discussion if so. Thanks!

These five lighthouse stamps were issued on 27 Dec 2007. After they were issued, it was noted that the top right stamp, the Pachena Point Lighthouse, had the house on the wrong side of the lighthouse. The stamp was reissued on 1 May 2008 with the house correctly located to the right of the lighthouse. Canada Post also notes that within each of the six stamps, in very fine micro-printing, is the geographical location of the lighthouse in the stamp. The original stamp has a Scott number of 2253 and the corrected version is 2253B.

Hope this helps.

yes thanks very much! Steiner appears to provide six spaces for this set. I figured it was something like that. Thanks again.
