DescriptionAs with the Parade covers for this release, there was a catchet for each of the stamps, but it's common to find all or most stamps on each cover. This one is intended for the 5c overprint on the red 4c QEII stamp form the booklet. Examples show a single stamp and a complete booklet pane.

General Notes
  • This is a McCallum cover produced under the Parade brand. Parade covers were made for issues from 1967 through May 1971. Only some of the covers carried a Parade Covers logo, most are unbranded but can be identified by the text styling.
