Here's an admail indicia I have been looking for: DIMENTIONAL Personalized Mail
Although the envelope to which it is affixed seems to be a regular #10.
There was a "Dimensional" format in the earlier version (Admail/Lettermail/Publications Mail) but I never saw any. This is in the newer version "Personalized Mail".
Furthermore, the stamp is applied as a sticker - not printed on the envelope. This will blur the delineation of Admail, Kiosk, and Picture Post stamps.
SAK - during ORAPEX in Ottawa last weekend, we held a well-attended meeting for those interested in this area of collecting. I brought an example of the Red Cross label ("dimensional"; as a cut square) which I was told had been cut from a #10 envelope.
The meeting enjoyed a presentation by Earle Covert, to my mind the leading source of knowledge on these things. The 20-or-so people attending participated fully in the discussion about what each has been discovering. Very interesting stuff!
ORAPEX - held this year from May 5-6 in Ottawa, Canada will once again feature a session where Earle Covert will lead a discussion about addressed admail. Everyone on SCF is welcome to join us in person for this - the date, time and room can be found on the event schedule, which gets updated regularly to reflect any changes to it. www.orapex.ca
There is also a face-to-face SCF meeting planned during the show, as discussed in another SCF thread.
If you are SCF, please identify yourself at the show so we can put faces to names and avatars!
