It seems the seller has pulled the 5c Vancouver stamp, it is no longer in the listings, including sold. They were asking $225 I think. They have also pulled the twin, a 10c blue with an obvious reperf at the bottom (not before I captured it ). This stamp was a beautiful straight edge with a great cancel. Now destroyed
Both margins are fairly narrow on all BC&VI stamps. Straight edges surround a sheet, usually wider. The 10c stamp above, I suspect it was imperf on the right and bottom, and re-perfed.
Here is a genuine certified pair (from the same seller). Notice how the perforation pin holes match perfectly at the top and bottom (some slightly up and down in relation to each other). This is because the comb perforation machine (shown earlier in this thread) moves down the sheet, so the exact same pins perforate all horizontal rows. The holes do not match on the single 10c stamp.
