First thing to check are the perforation measures. I'd also say that you have two different shades.

Both are Scott 24, but different printings/paper types.

Good luck with #32 on laid paper. At over $100K that will be an empty space in my album for the foreseeable future. I just checked my catalogue - there are paper varieties, a Bothwell watermark, and shades in that particular issue.

Neither of the illustrated stamps is a Canada #32.
To learn about the #32 there is a technical report that we wrote for the Greene Foundation website that can be accessed at http://www.greenefoundation.ca/Repo...y152013).pdf

Here is a sample of the back of my # 33. You can clearly see the horizontal laid lines on the paper.

I was lucky enough to find a Canada #32 in a circuit sales book many years ago. The third known copy described in the report by the Green report mentioned by gportch. I still get a thrill seeing it mentioned and discussed. It was my absolute best stamp find. Good luck on finding a fourth copy. And if you do be sure to have it expertized.
