Canada #1145var 36c Multicoloured Air Canada Plane & Globe, 1987 50th Anniversary Of Air Canada Issue, A VFNH Single On DF Greenish Cream/DF Rolland Paper, Showing Blurry Inscriptions

A VFNH single of the 36c multicoloured Air Canada Plane & Globe from the 1987 50th Anniversary Of Air Canada Issue on DF greenish cream/DF Rolland paper, showing blurry inscriptions. This is due to a slight rightward and downward shift of the blue layer that makes up the background colour. This causes the whites of the finer letters, as well as the red "Canada" inscription to contain blue, which makes the entire inscription appear blurry.
