Canada Qe II Karsh Portrait 5c Imperf?

I've been trying to locate a catalog# for this little pain in my... I know there was a normal printing run done in the late 1950's just after her succession to the throne. The only variants it gives are for an overprint and a precancel. I can't find a reference to the imperf. If this is an Imperf, I did notice the possible trimmings on 3 sides.

Catalog codes:

Michel: CA 281
Scotts: CA 329
Stanley Gibbons: CA 454


The forums assistance is always appreciated.

Looks like postal stationery cutout to me.

@Petert4522 I was thinking also along those lines, yet unable to come up with anything.

I don't have a specialized catalog for Canada. I'm just now updating my Scotts from 2012, don't have a store so... Main use is for identification. Plus I use online databases, most of which don't have extensive BOB items.

Thank you @Vayolene would you happen to have a Catalog # by chance?

Also does it have 1953 in the bottom right corner of the image? Just to be sure, I can't tell from your post.

Thank you again.

Believe it to be Scott/Unitrade "U75" from a #8 or #10 envelope.

Postal town looks to be Edmundston, New Brunswick.

@stamporator thank you very much.

Love this forum, it is always so helpful and packed with so many people with an amazing amount of philatelic knowledge.

stamporator : I totally agree with you. That's where I live; Edmundston, NB....

Hi Stamporator - agree on your enjoyment of this forum. I love it - but wish there would be more participation (yes, I'm guilty). I sometimes wonder if people are intimidated from posting because they don't want their questions to be perceived as silly. The more, the merrier! Chris
