Pre-cancelled booklet
Posted: Sat Jul 16, 2011 7:00 pm
Hello All,
Having had no response from a previous posting I thought I would re-post on the 'booklets' section, which I probably should have done before.

We have a booklet BB6 2s. 0d. pre-cancelled which has the Type I precancel except that the date and month are reversed to that shown in the SG Part 2 - double circle with curved bars. Is this unusual or do SG only illustrate one type?
Also on this booklet I believe the back cover has been replaced. The catalogue shows the back cover front and back carries advertisements whereas this one is blank. Also the card is different, thicker than the front cover and not well cut and showing a pencil line where cut.
I very much doubt that this was officially done, but is it possible, particularly being pre-cancelled.
Any information appreciated.
Regards.
Ron and Eunice
