I checked with the powers that be and they said it was ok to post this here rather than the giveaway forum, since it's exclusively U.S. back-of-book related.

After wading through those thousands of used airmails in that hoard I acquired, I put together some packets of 58 all-different to give away to benefit SCF.

Da rules:

1. These packets are available to anyone who donates $5 or more to SCF.

2. One packet per person, available until the packets I made run out.

3. When you make your donation through the PayPal button at left, add a note to the payment that provides your board username AND that it's for the "airmail packet giveaway". The powers that be will forward me confirmation of the donation received and I will contact you through the board for your address.

4. I will pay postage.


All the packets will contain the same 58 used airmails as follows:

C7-11, C16-17, C19-20, C23-24, C26-30, C32-C73

I also added a few random items to some of the packets. Some might have a stamp not listed above, others might have a multiple or two rather than singles.

It's for a good cause, so knock yerselves out!

Have those revenuecollector but I think it is very generous and a great idea, one that we could use more often. - Jeff

I don't collect airmails but I was amazed at the pictures you posted of that lot, not to mention the amount paid.

Just like to echo the above sentiment about your generosity... outstanding!

That really is a great Idea Rev. I have a 7 year old fledgling collector that love Airplanes and would get quite a kick out of those, I'll make the donation when I get home from work tonight.

5 packets on their way. Still more remain.

FYI, since I didn't make it clear in the original post, I will pay postage to international addresses for these, not just U.S.

Nice offer, especially for our overseas friends. There isn't a dog among the first 24 U.S. airmails, and the next fifty are mostly pleasing, too. Many of them are downright beautiful.

The 1947 15c New York skyline (Scott C35...the one with the Statue of Liberty in the foreground)...the 10c Pan-American building (C34...don't know why, exactly, but one of my favorites...).

Iconic.

I asked that this thread be moved to the giveaways forum so that more folks might see it who might have missed it in the Back of Book forum.

I still have more of these packets to give away to those who donate to SCF.

Thanks.

Received mine today. Many thanks to you revenuecollector, for sharing the wealth. I've managed to fill up many pages and even upgrade a couple of stamps. My US airmail collection is very happy. And why not!
Cheers
