Limited edition of 100: Sunbury, Ohio
April 8, 2024 Eclipse Event Cover
The Worthington
(Ohio) Stamp
Club prepared a special event cover to commemorate the April 8, 2024 Total Solar
Eclipse. There were a total of 102 covers cancelled at Sunbury, Ohio
on April 8. Sunbury, Ohio (pun intended) was in the path of
totality during the eclipse. 100 of the
covers are numbered on the back in pencil (1/100, 2/100, etc.) to indicate the
limitation of the edition. Two
additional "specimen" covers were prepared with no marking on the
back. One was presented to the Postmistress of Sunbury and the second one to
the postal clerk who did the bulk of the work cancelling the covers.
