Although I may be 90 minutes early (EDT) I submit this one for April 5th. I like it because it was a self-addressed stamped envelope that I used to get some first day cancels on postal cards. The post office applied the postal card first day cancel to the return envelope I sent, resulting in a First Day of Issue postmark on two stamps that have absolutely no connection with Salt Lake City, Utah or the April 5, 1980 postmark!

Here is another for the 5th. I had to include it because of the absolutely precise cancels. They almost look printed on there, rather than hand applied.

Here is one for April 6. It's certainly not exciting but it is a nice, neat commercial cover with a slogan machine cancel. I was always curious about how effective these early "window" envelopes were in displaying the address without an actual window.

Although I don't have a cover for April 8th, I found this corner cut with a slogan machine cancel to represent that date:

For April 11th (yesterday). Sadly, these 2011 spray-on cancels don't do justice to these covers anymore:
