Danish 1921 official national Christmas Seal. Design with GREENLAND THEME: Greenlandic Girl in traditional clothing, against snowy mountain background, Greenland POLAR BEAR coat of arms, Danish three lions coat of arms. FULL SHEET of 50 in wonderful quality. The sheet is extremely fresh and bright, with strong perforations without any separations and has never been folded. The gum is perfect except for four hinge marks, two in the top margin (selvage) and two on seals in the bottom row. (I have never seen a completely NH example of this sheet.) In the bottom margin (selvage) at the right, three of the selvage tabs have some excess adhesive on their fronts, likely from the production process -- most people would not notice it if it were not pointed out. The centering is generally F-VF (which very typical for the 1921 seals), however there are 17 seals that are VF or better, with a few in the XF or Superb range. This is the only example of a full sheet of the 1921 seal that I have actually recorded having in the last 48 years, but I have a vague memory of having one or two other examples back in the 1970s. Also, quite notably, while I have quantity stock of most 1910s-1920s seals, I have no backup stock of this year and when I purchased the remains of the huge A.E. Pade (famous Danish stamp dealer who moved his business to the U.S. in the 1930s) Christmas Seal stock back in the 1970s, there were virtually no examples of this year in his stock. I do not know if this year was printed in panes of 50 or if it was printed in larger sheets that were divided into panes of 50. However, due to the printing method (typography) and the method of production, tiny (flyspeck) differences can be found for most or all positions... thus this sheet (pane) could be used as the basis of plating this issue if one were so inclined. A "rare" and beautiful item that would be very important for a Danish Christmas Seal collection and a crowning piece for a Greenlandic Christmas Seal collection. The AFA 2021 catalog value for a NH perfect sheet is DKK 4500 (about US$675 [4/2022]). That value seems quite low to me considering the rarity! AFA also gives a value of DKK 2000 for a sheet that has been folded and/or with separations and/or hinged, etc. The break-up value of this sheet is over $500. This is much, much nicer than that! It is not often that I can offer such a beautiful item!

VF: Julemanden 1952 TB Christmas Seal SINGLE. An unusual type of Christmas seals, that had different designs in 1951-1955, which are avidly sought by collectors of Greenland. Listed in the DAKA GF 7 Greenland Cinderella Catalog 1999 (most recent edition). Daka states that the idea for the seals was British; they were issued by the Anglo Danish [Sanatorium] Scheme for British Children jointly by the Anglo Danish Society and the NAPT, the National Association for the Prevention of Tuberculosis in England. The seals were to be affixed to letters with Christmas wishes addressed to Santa Claus, the North Pole. Under the arrangement, such mail was to be sent to Greenland! "Julemanden" [the Yule Man or the Christmas Man] is a reference to Santa Claus. Singles are "scarce" -- I am only rarely able to offer examples of these seals.
