Bluenose

rdfs:comment

The Bluenose is the nickname for a 50-cent definitive postage stamp issued by the Canadian Post Office on 8 January 1929 as part of the George V of the United Kingdom King George V "Scroll Issue”. Scott number is 158 with a perforation of 12. The stamp depicts the fishing schooner Bluenose and the design, by the Canadian Bank Note Company, Ottawa, is a montage of two different images of the vessel, racing off Halifax Harbour. The stamp is considered a classic even though it was issued after 1900 and some people consider it to be the most beautiful stamp in the world, but certainly it is the favorite Canadian stamp. Bluenose is a naval tender engine who works on the other railway, then the main line. He is enemies with Thomas. As mentioned earlier, Bluenose is an extremely arrogant and rude tugboat with a stereotypical drill sergeant type of attitudes. Bluenose also assigns the tugs to haul highly dangerous ammunitions to be taken and loaded onto a freighter. Bluenose is a schooner who lives in the harbour. Bluenose made his first appearance in the episode Munitions in which he was to watch over the Kraka-Toa's arrival, loading and departure. He was shown attempting to order Hercules, O.J., the Fire Tug, Ten Cents, Zorran and Big Mickey about. However, his attempts to be the one in charge led to disaster when he did not listen to good advice from the other tugs, causing a devastating fire which led to the destruction of part of the dockside, the sinking of Big Mickey and destruction of the Kraka-Toa. During the fire, his engine broke down and he was saved by Ten Cents. The chaos left him in a state of shell shock. He was towed home by Grampus the next morning. He later appeared in the episode Regatta/4th of July in which he attempted to have Grampus blown up in target practice. In the story N

Bluenose is a schooner who lives in the harbour. As mentioned earlier, Bluenose is an extremely arrogant and rude tugboat with a stereotypical drill sergeant type of attitudes. Bluenose also assigns the tugs to haul highly dangerous ammunitions to be taken and loaded onto a freighter. Bluenose made his first appearance in the episode Munitions in which he was to watch over the Kraka-Toa's arrival, loading and departure. He was shown attempting to order Hercules, O.J., the Fire Tug, Ten Cents, Zorran and Big Mickey about. However, his attempts to be the one in charge led to disaster when he did not listen to good advice from the other tugs, causing a devastating fire which led to the destruction of part of the dockside, the sinking of Big Mickey and destruction of the Kraka-Toa. During the fire, his engine broke down and he was saved by Ten Cents. The chaos left him in a state of shell shock. He was towed home by Grampus the next morning. He later appeared in the episode Regatta/4th of July in which he attempted to have Grampus blown up in target practice. In the story Nothing to Declare, Bluenose came to inspect the dock as a security check before two top-secret navy vessels arrived to dock in Bigg City Port for awhile. He did a thorough inspection and managed to annoy Captain Star and Warrior in the process. Bluenose's whistle plays a high note with a distinct "warble", giving it a very bubbly sound. Bluenose is a naval tender engine who works on the other railway, then the main line. He is enemies with Thomas. The Bluenose is the nickname for a 50-cent definitive postage stamp issued by the Canadian Post Office on 8 January 1929 as part of the George V of the United Kingdom King George V "Scroll Issue”. Scott number is 158 with a perforation of 12. The stamp depicts the fishing schooner Bluenose and the design, by the Canadian Bank Note Company, Ottawa, is a montage of two different images of the vessel, racing off Halifax Harbour. The stamp is considered a classic even though it was issued after 1900 and some people consider it to be the most beautiful stamp in the world, but certainly it is the favorite Canadian stamp. Three printing plates were made; plate 1 (of 200 impressions) was never used because of defects found, but plates 2 and 3 (of 100 impressions) were used to print 1,044,900 copies of the stamp. The photographs for the handsome engraved stamp were taken by W.R. MacAskill in 1922 and the vignette was engraved by the American Bank Note Company, New York.
