1 SEPTEMBER


1987 - Bacarra, Ilocos Norte, Philippines to Buenos Aires, Argentina






@littleriverphil - I think that Iowa postmaster gave themselves away as to whether they are reading the postcards when they arrive.

Maybe the postmaster ( or clerk, How large of a town was Hayfield, Iowa?) also collected postcards like Clarence did. (Not even trying for his last name, I can't tell of that's an F or T or Y.)

Two today, one with a day date and the other with no day. Gotta put it somewhere...

Point Arena, addressed to a familiar name (think Salsig cards) this was posted 1/20/2017. But why? Nothing on either side indicates January 20th.





and Melburne, with no day date,

2 September

1945 - Manila to Santa Cruz, Manila


A bittersweet commemorative Manila postmark notes the official signing of the Japanese unconditional surrender. Manila suffered the brunt of the Japanese military atrocities in the Philippines.

1952 - Cocos Island to Singapore

The Director of Posts catches a memento of the first day of commercial postal service following WWII.

Good morning, missed a card on the 1st and 5 for today.

3 September

1953 - Alexandria Fiord, Ellesmere Island, N.W.T., Canada to Newport, KY, USA




Because of sea ice condition at the community of Cape Herschel in the fall of 1953, the post office which was established that year took place at an alternate community named Alexandria Fiord. But as they were unable to secure a new hammer postmark, the one intended for use at Cape Herschel was pressed into service. A new hammer arrived in 1954 on the following patrol, with the correct community's name. The postmark on the back of the envelope reads EASTERN ARCTIC PATROL R.M.S.

Good morning, six for today.
