The U.S. Post Office Departments had a prominent presence at many of these expos. They set up a model post office at the Philly expo where visitors could mail cards and letters with the special expo cancel.
Additionally, the POD issued a commemorative postal stationary envelope (U522 July 27, 1926) at the expo. Below is a first day with the model PO cancel

Nice work Russ,
I'll have to dig out, both the stamp and the cut square
I think I have them and include on the page.
I need to cut down on the information,
I felt there was too much writing.

Great subsidiary info.
