Show Us Your Airmail Covers World Edition

Back to the flags border with this ornate design out of Uruguay with the flags of several nations making up the border. The light postmark indicates the cover was posted July, 1974.

Today's contribution.

Three opposing corners designs from Canada, Argentina, and Uruguay. The border on the Canadian cover appear to be hand drawn. The designs continue on the reverse of the Argentinian and Uruguayan covers.

Another piece of hotel stationery from Osaka, Japan posted in 1964. This one with multiple red and blue lines, top and bottom of the envelope. The design continues on the reverse. I have wondered if he addressee of this cover, Arthur Miller, is the note playwright.

A 1929 first-flight cover out of Canada, bars left and right edges. This design is frequently seen on covers originating in the U.S. too.

Just a little history 50th anniversary first South African aerial post.

Four covers from foreign sources: First, is a 1946 item out of Cuba with vertical bars on one edge; Second is a 1951 cover from Bolivia with vertical and diagonal bars. The vertical bars are also on the reverse, the diagonal ones are not; Third, a 1929 first-flight cover from Canada with two sets of diagonal bars that carry over onto the reverse, and: Fourth a 1936 cover from Ecuador with diagonal bars on the corners and on which the sender has attempted to cancel out the printed airmail designators.

A roughly opened 1949 Mexican commercial airmail cover with bottom corners diagonals and decent image of a DC-4 in the center bottom. The design continues on the reverse with the aircraft moved up to the center just under the flap.

Soviet airmail envelope of 1979, part of a huge postal stationery series.
Postmark: Odessa, Ukraine, 4 December 1979.

Two foreign bottom bars covers, the first a registered commercial cover from Mexico with a Pepsi logo that coincidentally supports the red, white, & blue airmail designation. The second is a non-philatelic cover out of a U.S. Army Post office in Korea. I believe this is the only airmail border I have that might be of Korean origin.

A non-philatelic cover from Papua New Guinea with an illegible cancel that came out of a dealer's junk box. Little philatelic value, but I collected it for its unusual airmail border of red and blue palm trees bent by the wind.

Soviet airmail envelope.

The picture depicts airliner of the Soviet lines "Aeroflot".

A recent acquisition from Ireland with an opposing corners airmail border of shamrocks in green squares with red line running through them.

I inherited it from my father, who received it from a neighbor when he was a teenager.
