Umm AL Qiwain Cover

I have picked up a third cover from Umm al Qiwain. My first two were FDCs (reposted below). This is a commercial/official cover. The cancel details are light and I have not yet figured out the date.



The envelope was addressed to person living in small-town Minnesota, USA (address digitally sanitised).

Here are my other covers from this country (previously posted in another thread). I thought I would put them all in one thread.

$5

$6

For a second I thought I might have posted this in the wrong forum area.

Watch out Rod and BeeSee - or Smauggie might "digitally sanitise" you
Scary.....

Smauggie, I've seen that before! Oh yeah you showed me those in person! See you at lunch!

Digitally sanitised, Hmmmm...
perhaps he can work wonders on my toned and rusty stamps too.

You are a hoot, stampgirl.

Rod - I would be happy to digitally sanitize any stamp images.

These two were mailed to a fellow in San Bernadino California.

With an official stamp


With a stamp from the Kennedy Memorial set

So smauggie, let me get this straight, these are actually used stamps from former Trucial state and not CTO's?

Hi Ray,

Yes they are. I have removed the addresses because the folks who got them are probably still kicking around. In two cases, they are hand-written addresses and in one case a type-written address.

I have never seen CTO's on cover for Umm al Qiwain, except the FDC's above. And until I got them I had never seen an Umm Al Qiwain FDC.

If you would like, I can add one with a blurred address so you can see it is for real.

No, it's ok, just amazed to see a real cover like that.

The cover with the Kennedy commemorative has a US received cancel onthe back.
