Still going through some boxes and came across this. It wasn't until I checked the date and realised that this is a FDC. I thought it was just a neat airmail cover.

Nice one. All the coil stamps on one cover. Keep in mind that was quite an expensive proposition back in 1939 to have paid 74 cents worth of postage to create that one cover. I imagine it created quite a dilemma for FDC collectors to have had all of those face different stamps issued all on a single day.
