A personal cover on Tokyo's Imperial Hotel stationery with a variation on a checkerboard design. Note the top and bottom centers form an H with an I in the center, for Imperial Hotel? The design continues on the reverse.  |

Nice cachet on that cover, Zepman. I'd like to find one of those for my Aircraft on Covers collection. The airplane looks like a Heinkel He 70 "Blitz."

Another cover out of Japan. I'm Not sure how to categorize this one, a ribbon pattern, perhaps.  |

From my "crossroads" category is this first-flight cover from the Philippines in 1937. There is a handstamp on the reverse indicating that the Fidelity Stamp Co., of Washington, D.C., prepared the cover, but no info on the border designer.  |

A "crossroad" designator out of Ecuador with just blue lines. It needed the added Por Avion to assure airmail service.  |

A second border out of Egypt. The postmarks are illegible, but there is a letter with the cover dated 1966 and a return address on the reverse noted the sender was from Alexandria.  |
