I posted my unused UX1 and UX8 in this thread last April, right after I bought them at WESTPEX. I really like the early Hawaiian postal stationery, too. Part of it has to do with my fascination with the language, which I want to learn someday. I'd love to be able to read the Hawaiian translations of The Hobbit and Alice's Adventures in Wonderland that I have in my collection!

Volapük (See five posts earlier)

Quote from Omniglot site:

Volapük ("World Language") was invented in 1879 by Johann Martin Schleyer, a German priest who lived in Baden. Schleyer claimed the idea for creating an international language was suggested to him by God in a dream.

I collect Postal stationary and stamps that illustarate a named types such as V mail, Penny black, Black jack, Censored. I hope to make some kind of dictionary of terms and phrases illustrated with real examples ofPhilatelic material.
Can anyone tell me any named types or classes of postal stationary, where the name is widely recognised. Definitions of the term would be useful
Thanks in anticipation of any advice.

Off to see it in McDonald..........

The paper was a quizling, coming in at .012" , somewhere between a wrapper and a postcard.

Update:
I may send this to ONEPS for appraisal
it definitely is on card of some sort, not a stamp (other than a pre printed type on card)
ATHENS?
Curious.
