Netherlands 2003 - Variant UNFOLDED stamp booklets PB81

2 stamp booklets / Autmaat booklets PB81 "5 for the card" with TPG POST Logo, tightly closed eyelet and print run W1W1W1W1, both booklets with a certificate from Henk Vleeming. The booklets have a special VARIETY: they are UNFOLDED. The booklets are NOT folded along the perforation line. That is unusual. The booklets were always folded by the folding machine and supplied folded to the regular sales points and/or folded delivered via the 2003 stamp year collection and/or stamp booklets. One booklet is mint; the other booklet is canceled NIPA Antwerp 13 and 14 Sept 2003. During that fair in Antwerp, TPG-Post also had a sales stand; the suspicion is that the booklets (just released on 1 September 2003) were taken unfolded and sold over the counter at the fair. Both booklets have a small certificate from Henk Vleeming: Comments certificate 27.401 "Unfolded variety NVPH PB81 with stamp NIPA 2003 ANTWERPEN 13 and 14 Sept 2003 Unfolded booklet genuine and mint, stamp original print. Small crease, no further defects.
