Continuing on my trek through Grandma's collection, I found this cover. What is interesting is that almost every other stamp in my Liberia Collection (some 500 stamps) are all CTO. Finding an actual postally used issue was a treat. Not much value, but love the incredibly careful and accurate lettering.
That is one of their many symbols for Official Stamp. They also had a very small OFFICIAL, an O S, and versions of the Script example that you see on the letter. Not much value (probably $0.75 in stamps) but I just love the hand lettering on some of these items. I also like the U.S. America.
In any case, it continues to stay with all the other items ... in a big album ready to be split up to the Grandkids someday.
I'll see if I can post some other items later. Lots of Censor covers where the darn label is covering some higher value stamps. Some are more interesting than others.
