What reading level is The Stamps of Canada book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
1c blue-green, Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4. 2c carmine, Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4. 5c dark blue, Nos. 1, 2. 7c olive-green, No. 1. 10c dark violet, No. 1. 15c red-orange, No. 1. 20c yellow brown. No. 1.
The stamps were all printed on the usual white wove paper and wereperforated 12, though specimens of the 2c are known entirelyimperforate. Fairly well marked shades may be found in connection withthe 1c and 2c denominations but the other values show but very slightdifferences.
[Illustration] [Illustration] The royal ...portraits on the 1/2c and 2c values call for little comment, though it is interesting to note that the portrait of the Princess ofWales (now Queen Mary) is exactly similar to that shown on the 4c stampof Newfoundland which was first issued in 1901. The picture of thePrince of Wales (now His Majesty King George V) was from a photograph byW. & D. Downey, of London, taken just prior to his journey to India in1906.
[Illustration] The portrait of Jacques Cartier on the 1c is precisely like that whichappears on Canada's first 10d stamp.
