From the land of the Bluenose...teche bash...or however it is spelt....ptinted like that at times.
 

Whatever you do, do NOT attempt to remove the stamps from the brown paper. Though there are stamp companies that will appraise your item for a fee (for example: Online Stamp Appraisals, Antique & Rare Stamp Appraisals - Value my Stuff), I'd first attempt to find a stamp museum and submit a pic to them for their opinion. It's certainly an oddity, but whether or not it's also a rarity still needs to be determined.

Leslie, tete-beche, aye.
Don...

Edit: Tete-Beche:
A pair of stamps printed together so that the images point in opposite vertical directions.
