Canada Lq And Sq Perforated 11 1/2 X 12

Does anyone have any copies of the Large and/or Small Queens with perforations 11 1/2 x 12 that they can more precisely gauge?

The Scott/Unitrade numbers for these are 21a, 26, 29a, 30a, 35d, 35iii, 35vi, 35vii, 36e, 37e, 37ii, 37iii, 38a, 39b, 40c, 40d, 40e

I am looking for you now Jogil.

Jogil.
I have shown some large queens here. A couple are 11 1/2 x 12. Kiusalas 68x66. Is that what you are after ?. Scroll to the bottom of the page.

I also have 37iii on cover.

Yes, they are these. I am looking to see if the perf. 11 1/2 Kiusalas-68=11.58 is exactly that or somewhat off of it.

jogil..I check over 100 and had only one that measured 11.5 x 12.0
Found it in one of my stock books.




Robert

Well jogil, I have in my Canadian SQ and LQ:
29a
36e
37e
38a
39b

......but they have been measured using UNITRADE Clearvue gauge, never submitted to Kiusalas but I also have Brian's gauge.....have not re-measured lately

René

I will check the ones I know I have tomorrow. I have a Unitrade and clear Instanta perf guages. Any preference ?.

dynamode: Instanta gauge. Thanks.
wert: Can you get your transparent gauge on it? Thanks.
Renden: Could you use Brian's gauge on it? Thanks.

Jogiil..Excuse the photos..My D*** scanner is slowly gong south..Had to use my phone, but it is clear enough to see a 11.5 x 12.0

Robert

wert: I need it gauged with your more accurate gauge that you have used before on here that has lines instead of dots like the Stanley Gibbons "Instanta" or Unitrade perfect gauge. Thanks.

wert: Thanks. I am getting a gauge reading of between 11.60 and 11.65 by using your above scan picture and a cut and paste program like MS paint.

These are the stamps I have found Perf 11½x12-68x66 . Large and small queens. They all seem to be just below 11.6. Pictures are the best I can do, still getting used to camera.

dynamode: thanks

jogil. I was presuming you just needed the 11½ sides. Do you need the 12 sides as well ?.

dynamode: Yes, I only need the 11 1/2 sides which I found to be around 11.63 gauge. Thanks.

29a re-measured using Brian's decimal gauge and Kiusalas gauge:

11.5 X 12 - Decimal gauge
11.6 (K68) X 12.1 (K65)

In daylight, stamp's shade appears as Purplish grey (Duckworth)/ Grey Violet (Unitrade)....Group VIA (Menich Descr) Montreal 1876-79.

Stamp scanned on my Cannon but I do not have the equipment to photograph stamp+gauge.
Will do the others when I have time - thanks for the thread ! René
