6 1119 Stamp Perforation Development in Canada Julian J. Goldberg, Brian Cannon and John M. Walsh, FRPSC In 1851 sheets printed to contain individually imaged stamps were produced for and released by the Post Office without any mechanical means to separate one from another. A most time consuming work load for the Post Office staff. Often the resultant product from their attempts was damage to the image while being separated from the others. Post Office staff generally used scissors or any sharp blade device to effect separation. In 1858 it seems that a new requirement must have been placed with the fulfilment of the stamp reorders. It was the requirement that the stamps be able to be separated without the use of cutting devices. This necessitated the weakening of the paper by the introduction of holes surrounding each image on the sheet. This method is known as perforating. The resulting holes are called perforations. This perforator device consisted of wheels having a number of pins on them aligned along an upper shaft paired to wheels with the same number of holes on them aligned along a lower shaft. After finishing the initial perforating the stamp sheet was turned 90 degrees and the wheel ran across the sheet in that direction. The wheel pins penetrated the firmly held paper. The quantity of pins and holes on this wheel were known. The quantity of holes over the passage of a set distance can be measured. Stamp collectors have used such a gauge that measures the quantity of distanced holes. It is called a perforation gauge which has been calibrated to count the number of holes in the conventionally stated distance of two centimetres. The perforation gauge generally utilized is calibrated for wheel pins that were made in the metric manner. The wheels that were made in North America were not of metric measurement. The instruments made for use in the United States and Canada were in imperial length measurement of inches not millimetres. The metric instrument making manner is definitely not North American. As the Canadian stamp requirements were still being printed in the United States, the reorder in 1858 went to the same printing company Rawdon, Wright, Hatch & Edson New York. This company had renamed itself as American Bank Note Co. New York (ABNCo). Over the passage of time other printing company names arose such as British American Bank Note Co. Ottawa (BABNCo) and won the Canadian printing contracts but all were from North America with the ABNCo parent company in the United States. The printing presses and perforation machines were manufactured in the United States utilizing imperial measurement. The line perforations were performed using imperial measurement line perforator machines until 1978 when this line perforation machinery was phased out. In 1858 the perforated stamps were produced by a perforating wheeled instrument that had 189 pins in its circumference on a wheel having a diameter of inches. This instrument created a hole pattern giving x holes when calculated to the present day conventionally standard stamp measurement dimensions of two centimetres. During this time period the stamp quantity needs were not overly extravagant with the demand most readily accomplished using a single same sized perforation multi-wheeled machine. In 1859 the Canadian Post Office placed an order that entailed mammoth demand requirements. The printing company ABNCo was in the United States. The order involved six different designs and denominations and had huge quantity printing demands. When the stamp perforations are measured, several different line perforation machines are noticed to have been pressed into service to accomplish all the perforation requirements. The wheel perforator pins were 189 and 192. The machines used made these known combinations: The American Bank Note Company (ABNCo) from 1858 to 1867 pins 189 x x x 192 gauge/cm (11.75 x 11.75) (11.94 x 11.75) (11.94 x 11.94) 1!!! 2!! 5!!! 10!!! 12½!!! 15!!!
