610-D Appears to be Imperial Tobacco.

- Page 39:
Paste-up Stamps - Starting with Series "A", paste-ups of strip-stamps (RP) can be found with cancellations of Imperial Tobacco (6-10D and 1-23D). It is conjectured that Imperial was forming sheets of stamps into rolls for use in its stamping machines.
The contracts with the stamp printers (BABN and CBN) specified only sheet-formats for tobacco stamps. However, the following statement was appended to the specifications given in the 1935 and 1950 contracts with BABN :

https://sites.google.com/site/canad...baccostamps/
"Note: The [Revenue] Department may at any time require stamps for Cut Tobacco and Cigarettes to be printed on continuous strips, without splicing or joining [i.e., paste-ups] and to be delivered in rolls."

It is not known if such rolls were ever produced. Due to the means by which these paste-up stamps appear to have been created privately by Imperial Tobacco, they will not be listed as varieties.

Further guessing.

These are "removal" cancels, after tobacco goods are removed from bonding warehouses.

6-10D and 6-10-D are the excise licence alpha numeric cancels from Imperial Tobacco.
B1A and AGC forms part of that alpha numeric cancel.
