Great collection I-L-Stamps
Have you considered doing an exhibit with them? They would be a great advertising cover exhibit plus the fact it is centralized on one particular product with a variety of letterheards and covers.

What do you mean by exhibition? How would I go about doing something like that? |

If you are near a stamp club, you might consider mounting these covers on pages within a frame - 6,12,18,24 pages per frame depending on the type of show.
Do a write-up with the covers and get some historical background on the different companies represented on the different covers.
You can also consider doing an exhibit online too.

Great idea Bujutsu! I just figured out who Edward Schultz is and now all I have to do is Google the companies and do some write-ups! |
