Listings of great postal covers and First Day of Issue covers continue. These were stored in not-so-perfect conditions at some point, so there will be some musty marks and smell, soiling, stuck flaps, etc., as shown and described. Many historic, less comon, and interesting topics will be seen.
I am NOT normally a postal history and FDC dealer. So I am describing the item and condition the best I can in my typical postcard-oriented methods. Keep this in mind and carefully view images and read description. Ask questions if needed!
NEW ECONOMY SHIPPING OPTION FOR LOW COST ITEMS: FREE SHIPPING (when offered in my listing, and to U.S. destinations only), which will be in a 2 mil plastic sleeve, with index card or manila folder stock protection only, in a regular legal size envelope. May also be shipped in a greeting card envelope with the greeting card as protection. This ECONOMY SHIPPING option is available to International customers (Canada or overseas) for $1.45 shipping charge. Please realize this casual and lighter protection shipping method applies for the free U.S. shipping or ECONOMY international shipping options.
For my standard higher protection shipping, buyer pays 90 cents shipping to U.S. destinations, $1.60 to Canada or $2.45 to overseas destinations. For this standard shipping method I will ship carefully by U.S. Postal Service first class mail, with a 2 mil sleeve, and paperboard stiffeners in a 6"x 9" envelope. I combine shipping for just this one charge for up to 4 cards or covers from any of my listings that are purchased from me at one time.
The cover: 1930 Registered Mail Montreal to Henrysburg, Quebec, Canada. Guaranteed old and original, from an old and extensive collection.
Cover condition, style, design, etc. is as shown. Please ask any questions you wish; earlier in the listing period is better for correspondence. Now that I am providing detailed, high resolution scanning, I will spend less time describing, more time listing. Please view posted images carefully, and use this general note as well:
Condition: Fair / Average. Various wear and aging. Top edge slit open and ragged paper edge. Also, some moderate soiling and age discoloration, small stains and marks, foxing, bumped and worn corners, and light wrinkles and crimps. See images.
Many great vintage covers and postcards to post over the coming months. Please follow my ebay store. I am a member of the IFPD (International Federation of Postcard Dealers) and I have my customers' interests and satisfaction in mind. Please check my other listings of vintage postcards and WW II era covers.
Maryland customers only will have to pay a 6% Sales Tax, as required by law; sorry, I cannot avoid that.
