Just got the block in the mail today. Very pleasing block of stamps and very prompt service, I'll definitely buy from this person again!! The wrinkle on the back was practically invisible and if I hadn't been told it was there I wouldn't have even noticed it. I think I'll still keep my eyes open for the other three blunt G's but I can definitely get rid of another saved search on E-Bay!! I also collect the postmarks from my home county, Queen's County, in Nova Scotia. I really think Cheryl must have really dug to finish her collection of all 47. I've been stuck at 25 / 47 for a long time now, those things are damn hard to find since most post marks at the time were almost unreadable! Anyway, just making my report. If anyone else collects Canada material this seller (check link) seems very dependable - of course, I might have just been lucky!! I hope I'm allowed to comment on sellers, if not please don't hesitate to delete the post!
Edit: let me add a question: Does anyone know if there are degrees of "bluntness" to the blunt G? The one I have has all of the right side of the horizontal bar missing. I have seen others offered where only part of the right side is missing. Can anyone comment? If you can get them to load here are two scans.

Got to cross another item off my bucket stamp list today after finding a mint plate block of Canada O38ai on E-Bay. There was a crease in the gum on the back but the price lets me live with that!! Damn hard to find!! https://www.ebay.ca/itm/385241667590
I know it's a very small image but if you are interested use the link provided to have a look. I now have all the flying G's, the only fish hook G and an example of a blunt G. Still need to find the raised "high flying G". I just realized how dumb this whole thing sounds!
