JUBILEE ISSUE Re-entries 5 $1 to $5 Page 1 - 1/2¢ to 3¢ // Page 2 - 5¢ to 6¢ // Page 3 - 8¢ to 10¢ // Page 4 - 15¢ to 50¢
For about 100 years, the only re-entry commonly acknowledged and catalogued on the Jubilee Issue was the position #5 re-entry on the Ten Cents value. Lately, with more attention from specialists, more and more re-entries are beginning to surface on this, one of Canada’s most beautiful issues, even on the dollar values. Below are those I have recorded so far. Please report any others to me for inclusion here.

Scott #61 One Dollar Lake Re-entry - No - Slip Print! Plate Position ? Here is a stamp that shows what may be doubling due to re-entry, OR it may just be a slip print. The bluriness of some of the design 'doubling' seems to indicate the latter, but parts of it do look like a re-entry. It would have to be found in at least a pair with the other one normal to be sure. |

Scott #62 Two Dollars Purple Re-entry Plate Position ? A more subtle re-entry is found on the $2 Jubilee, showing as numerous additional dots in the lettering of CANADA POSTAGE.

| *11 | Scott #63 Three Dollars Bistre Re-entry Plate Position ? A very sharp re-entry is found on the $3 Jubilee, surprisingly unreported all these years. Very clear markings are seen in POSTA, as well as a mark in the left slant of the large central 'V.' I discovered both the $2 & $3 Jubilee re-entries in a U.S. dealer's stock at a show here in Toronto. I couldn't afford to purchase them, but I DID point out the re-entries to the dealer so he would know what he had. He has since submitted them to The Greene Foundation for certificates. It's surprising to see that such re-entries, particularly the clear one on the $3, have gone unreported for so long. I have also located unrecorded re-entries on the 6¢ and, believe it or not, the $5 Jubilee, as well as a second, different, re-entry on the $3 than the one you see here. Unfortunately, I do not have scans or photos of these latter items. Recently (towards the middle of 2007) Mike Smith reported finding a copy of this re-entry, confirming it as constant. Near the end of 2007, Bruce Craw of Bow City Philatelics sent me scans of this beautiful re-entry on a plate proof! Scroll down past the first set of photos to see the clarity of the proof.

| *21 | Scott #65 Five Dollars Olive Green Re-entry Plate Position ? Clear marks are found in the ‘P’ and ‘T’ of POSTAGE. There are also additional markings found in the central crown. The is the clearest re-entry I have seen to date on this high value Jubilee.
I have seen another $5 with a slight shift to the left, especially noticeable in the middle ‘A’ of CANADA and the ‘P’ of POSTAGE. All of FIVE DOLLARS is slightly doubled as well, especially the ‘V.’ I do not have a scan of this one, though.

| *22 | Scott #65
Five Dollars Olive Green Re-entry Plate Position ? Clear marks of a re-entry are seen in ‘PO’ of POSTAGE, as well as the ‘IR’ of VIR. I have now seen two identical copies of this re-entry, so I am certain of its constancy.
