Release 2 consists of a study of the faked bisects of Canada and provinces created by Raoul Charles de Thuin of Merida, Mexico. It incorporates two large collections of de Thuin BNA material, the American Philatelic Society collection (20 pgs) purchased from De Thuin around 1966 and a collection formed by the late Carl Walske (12 pgs) obtained directly from de Thuin by himself and Robson Lowe. The Walske - Lowe material has never been published. This reference also examines a number of bisect fakes from the Cyril Harmer, R.B. Mitchell collections and others. The manuscript is presently in progress and being scanned into digital format.
