Here is a nice slip print of a Newfoundland C19 (TE4 in N.S.S.C.) in catalogs.
Definition of a "slip print" according to re-entries.com
Quote: To create a slip print, (sometimes called a 'slurred' print), the paper was somehow shifted slightly while the paper was in contact with the plate, either touching the plate just before it was properly positioned, or pulled from the plate a little too quickly before the ink had properly separated from the plate on to the paper, drawing the ink away slightly in one direction, giving it a doubled effect.
You can see the slip print in Norway-Sweden and the island.
All the letters of Newfoundland have the slip print.
Slip print on U.S.S.R. Even shows up on the clouds. On these letters to.
On left frame line and inside frame line and number one.
Coming from a Newspaper-printing-editing Family (my dad's)and having spent my young years with printers, and having worked myself on some simple ones to do cards etc., I do agree this term is coming from the basic printer's experience, one you understand, wert.
Yup !!! used it a lot and did my "montage" myself but the linotype I did not touch....one of the operators did my stuff and I used letter blocks manually for most of the small work.........and I think I found a nice New Brunswick cover for you....but not with a New Brunswick stamp....I wish !
Pics do bring good souvenirs from my dad's printing shop - newspaper outfit etc. Le Madawaska was the name of the weekly French speaking and largest of the sort Newspaper in Canada as most weeklies were in English
