There appears to be very few Kiusalas U.S. gauges for sale and very many Kiusalas Canadian gauges for sale.

If Scott referenced Kiusalas in their catalogue there would be more interest.

However many were made, it wasn't a lot and probably too many Canadian ones were made for the demand that exists even today. Kiusalas gauges are almost never found in old collections.

At least one other US specialized gauge has been made since (for Bureau issues) and is still available. One can always make their own gauge from cheap used stamps.

There is a chart in the Unitrade Canada stamp catalogue on page 55 that uses the Kiusalas Canadian perforation gauge for Small Queens.

What's the difference between the US and Canadian gauges? Can anybody provide scans of the two gauges?
