Hi guys...Just posting this special sheet put out by the Canadian Philatelic Society to celebrate the Silver Jubilee of Queen ElizabethII.

What I find odd is they used Wildlife stamps from Scott 322 - 323 - and 324...???

With a special occasion like that why didn't they use the special Queen Elizabeth II - Coronation (Scott 330) that Canada printed...??

Or at least use Queen Elizabeth II (Karsh Portrait) stamps (Scott 325 - 329)

Because 325-329 (Karsh) weren't issued until after the show (May 1/53) and the wildlife issues (322-4) came out just before the show.

Canada Post should have put out Scott 330 earlier or CPS should have waited..

No - he'd be lurking in printers' shops, scratching plates and smearing ink!
