That US postal card addressed to Edward W. Loth, architect, of Troy, NY (1857-1938) has an interesting history. Mr. Loth was a noted architect of area churches in the day and the firm to which he was associated is still in business today:   Here's the website of the present architectural firm that shows some of the examples of his architectural designs back in his day: http://www.mosaicaa.com/about/history.php?era=1800 |

My oldest stamped cover. November 27th 1840. A Penny Black plate 1b cancelled by a Banff red Maltese Cross. The Macduff Penny Post was used to take the letter to the nearest Post Office in Banff and was used between 1835 and 1843 when Macduff (my home town) got its own Post Office.  |

Amazing stuff, I have a question though as I do not collect cover. Maybe I should start?
How do you store covers? Do you have special cover stock books or albums? |

 Before I got this card, all personal data were already erased. But the cancels are very clear. |

mindpsyche thats a fair question...if I can pick up showgard cover albums in good shape second hand from a cover dealer I use them..otherwise I go to a hobby store and purchase clear plastic two pocket pages for 25 cents each and put them in a 3 ring binder ! That way it shows both sides of the cover ! |
