This is the first time I have ever seen an entire sheet FDC ( Scott 1,757 ).
I verified the date, June 10 1978, as first day of issue.

To be fair, an entire sheet is composed of six souvenir sheets.

@ZebraMan
How many first-day-of-issue 'full sheets' similar to what you posted, exist ?
Are they rare ?

No clue how common these are. I doubt anyone kept records. "Rare" is a difficult term to use, especially on a modern item, but I wouldn't expect that there are too many full sheets compared with single FDCs, considering the high cost of postage for that many stamps. Full sheets are also not in demand by collectors because of the difficulty for storage of large items.

I have several dozen, like state birds, state flags, presidents, and the Interphil 1976 series.

The full pane of the CAPEX sheets also come with same date Canada Cancels from the show. Tried to sell one as part of a small Canada lot at last night's club auction but no takers.
