Canada Stamp #2 - HRH Prince Albert (1851) 6d

Laid paper

Prince Albert on laid paper (without visible lines) with the scarcer brownish purple shade, very apparent on this copy, one of the best example we have seen of this shade! Four nice margins with frame visible all around, a very nice "face free" blue target cancellation, certified by Vincent Graves Greene.

Beautiful copy of the HRH Prince Albert on laid paper with extremely strong vertical laid lines in the paper! Four margins, fresh slate violet colour and a very sharp seven-ring target cancellation!

Four huge margins, fresh colour, vertical laid paper lines well visible on the back, quite discrete target cancellation for this issue, a very high quality copy of this scarce pence stamp.

Fresh consort on laid paper with strong vertical lines easily visible on the back, three clear margins, slightly touching frame at upper left, moderately cancellation by seven-ring target cancellations, certified by Vincent Graves Greene.

Beautiful six pence Prince Albert on laid paper with a very fresh slate violet colour, a very clean and sharp socked-on-the-nose seven-ring target cancellation (possible trace of a red cancellation on lower left corner), tight on two margins, but with two big margins (fine+) and easily visible vertical laid paper lines on the back (especially in watermark fluid).
