Any Interest In World Postal Stationery?

Nice Used BASUTOLAND AirMail lettercard. Issued 1944.

Very vague addresses from one city to another.

Some very interesting unused U.S. postal stationary.

The Butler Company, originally the Butler Manufacturing Company, produced water

Mr. Royster became a pioneer in the field and is accredited by fertilizer manufacturers with being among the first men in America to realize the economic importance of scientific knowledge in fertilizer production.

First are the two regular stamped envelopes released by the United Nations this month (along with other items not shown):



and secondly, you gotta love this, a NEW AEROGRAMME from the UN!! Don't see a lot of aerogrammes being issued anymore, or at least I don't. This was also released this month.



There are also a bunch of postal cards stationery they issued, but don't want to bore you all with the stuff. Enjoy.

A new post for the new year. Three pretty pre-1900 postcards from Central America.

Here are a couple of cards issued for Christmas usage by Ecuador. None of my catalogs go that far on Ecuador, so your guess on DOI (Date of Issue) is as good as mine.




This is the rear on both cards. I don't know if there were more in the set.

Here's a newspaper wrapper from Canada. I'd be interested in seeing some similar wrappers from other countries.

Here are two envelopes from Austria.
The first was issued in 1987, and is a "PROOF" cover, as indicated by the printed line thru the lower right corner.



The second was issued in 1982.

First up:
1 postal envelope from Thurn u. Taxis (an early German Princely House which managed a self run postal system for centuries in central and western Europe). Item issued 1861.




2nd item:
Hamburg (German state) Postal Money Order, issued 1866. Rare item.

Here is a North Korea Aerogramme (circa 1998).





It is unusual with the thickness of the paper. MUCH thicker (therefore heavier) than the normal aerogramme. Still, I guess you use what you have.

My name is Ralf Altendorf, I'm new here and I'm a german collector.
