Great covers Phil 70 cent to post a letter in 1937 must have been a small fortune  and are there any cancellations on the reverse regards Harry  |

Harry, yes it was quite a sum..but your letter was travelling by Clipper instead of a sea voyage..yes the covers have back cancels...the one to Asia is marked Victoria and the Irish one has a Marseille backstamp..strange I would have thought it went to Ireland first rather than France ??? |

Nice covers Phil, glad to see that you were able to pick up something at the show.
It was also nice to see Ed and Collie. I told Collie he has to be nuts collecting China.... |

Done Phil if you don't mind the next time you go to the stamp show for some covers and see any thing between 1860 to 1910 that's cheep (I mean cheep Jackson's or Washington's) please grab it for me as I love these Varieties and variations regards Harry |

Wow!
Nice covers. I've thought about trying to get some first flight covers. I think that'll be my next area to expand into.

Harry, actually I was trying to get a feel for the 19th century covers at the show..the ones with the green and brown and red Washingtons...the trick is to get a clean one thats they did not tear one end off of...will work with you on those...phil |
