It is still pretty cool even with the ink splatter! I wonder if any of those Pan-Am Exposition buildings in Buffalo are still standing. |

This little cover started in Southport, Maine and traveled around Italy, chasing Dr. S. Woodhouse, Jr.  It has the ever lovable 2c "Empire State Fast Express" locomotive stamp and the 4c "Electric Car in Washington" stamp which showcase some of the high technology at the turn of century.  The receiving marks on the reverse document the Italian vacation of this little cover: From New York to Venezia (Venice), then Firenze (Florence), and finally on to Roma (Roma).  Someday I hope to get to visit those places! |

The Indian Territory was land set aside within the United States for the use of Native Americans.  C. E. Wilcox of the U.S. Courts for the Indian Territory in Muskogee, Ind. Terr., sent this registered cover in 1901 to Miss F. D. Wilcox in Milford, Illinois. It has two nice copies of the 4c Pan American "Electric Car in Washington" commemorative.   |

This cover, canceled on July 4, 1901 was mailed at sea aboard a steamship in the Hamburg-America Line. It is franked with a 5c Pan American stamp showing the Bridge at Nigara Falls.    |

Those are some nice looking Cinderella's. I would like to come across some tied to a cover. I have a sheet of cinderella's for Washington 2006, but I didn't break it to use on cover. In hind sight I should have. |

Here is a colorful advertising cover for the 1901 Pan American Exposition. The cachet, the 2c express locomotive stamp and the slogan cancel are all related to the Exposition.   |

T-360 if you run across anymore Indian Territory covers and want to let them go let me know what you would want for them. Oklahoma and any thing affiliated to it has become kind of a major topic for me in my collection.
And just a bit of neat info I live less then five miles from the north west corner of the Muscogee Nation in the Sac & Fox Nation. |

Thanks stamperdude and sfgoda! Cimarron_Warrior, Indian Territory covers are scarce and popular. I was lucky to win this one at auction. Nutmeg has some I.T. covers in their current auction (scroll down, they start at lot 2758). |
