McCann lists the French version of BK 34 (3c War dark carmine panes of 4) with the 7c and 6c rate page and a 12 mm staple as type e. But Unitrade 2016 does not have any French BK34 booklet with the 7c & 6c rate page. I have just got one of these and was wondering why Unitrade does not list it and if it is a rare or just uncommon booklet. Any comments would be appreciated.

Forgive me my innocence but does Unitrade list French stamps?

This is a Canadian booklet printed in French rather than English.

In the KG6 period booklets were issued with the covers and contents in English or French and some booklets were also printed in both languages.

The stamps were booklet version of the normal Canadian definitives.

Peter - Canada is a bilingual country, English and French. Some booklets were issued with English covers, others with French covers. Eventually they were all issued with both languages on the cover.

Mea Culpa. I missed where he said "French version". Thank you BeeSee.
By the way, we are now bilingual also. When I call my doctor for anything I have to first indicate whether I want to speak English or Spanish!

McCann normally lists a greater number of varieties than Unitrade does on most booklets. Unitrade lists 34a/b/c/d with English and French versions of each. 34d has the 6c rate page with the 7c surcharge with a cover and text in French.

I believe the McCann 34e French version you refer to is the same as Unitrade 34d French version.
