Yes I thought so John,thanks Greg still not to sure though, there were a few airmails in the catch and this one stood out.  This registered letter from Cambodia to Scotland (love the franking)  and this French pre-stamped letter that's so old it's falling apart.  also there a post card with the same embossed stamp but different value I'll post a photo of it when I can,there are a few more items that I'll show you but I'll post them another day. regards to all |

Boy Harry looks like you are stocking up for a long Winter.  Some really nice looking ones in there, keep showing em. By the way I did find a decent R95c so that one can go off your list. |

Thanks Mac though it has been a long winter down under were on the up hill run to summer,In my last post I also should have said I used up all the spare pages (1X10 pages)I had laying around the house,that's on top of the 4 albums and 4X10 4 pocket pages I had to buy another album (total of 5) and 4X10 4 pocket pages (total of 9X10 4 pocket pages)from the dealers and I still need more albums and pages so while I was there I ordered 2 more albums and another 8X10 4pocket pages and at what cost to protect the covers,  In reality I spent twice as much on albums and pages than what I spent to buy the cover  . regards to all  |

Nice box of goodies Harry. I love those two exhibition sheets you posted in the initial message. Great stuff. It's always good fun to rummage through boxes, not knowing what you might find. The cheque stamp may be Croatian, but I cannot read all the words from the scan. Also, the cover from the Bank in Passau [Bavaria] to Berlin is lovely. Registered and with a lovely, nay superb looking Letter seal from the bank itself. A winner !!  Good on yer! Londonbus1 |

I'm glad you like them and also the bank cover Michael,there's another with a seal on the revers but not as nice as the one previously shown.   These are the only two that have seals the second sealed envelope is a stick on the rest don't have any  shame .  Oh and P.S. Mick all you have to do is click on the photo to enlarge it  |

Nice covers, Harry.
I think the German seals on the backs of those envelopes have some value. I've seen them in Vance Auctions, before. Perhaps someone knows more...?

Harry I have not priced cover albums lately but I use the Vario pages and a separate purchase for a binder. I like them because the black ones are four to a page and if needed you can mix in a clear one to show both sides of the cover. Have you thought about these ones? Binder  Clear see thru pages.  Black Vario pages.  |

G'Day Mac and yes I do use them for all my FDC and Airmails and as you say just take out the sleeve and you can view both side's of the cover  . The only thing I'm lacking is dust covers for the albums.  Oh P.S. sorry I replied briefly I'm up to my neck in pre-cancels trying to sort them out  . |

Mac: Lovely covers... I do the exact same thing for my Texas Air Mail covers. What sort of flight covers are you collecting? David |

Hi David, on the first flight covers anything with a C11 and once in awhile I will pick up a experimental or oddity one. I also have a collection of HPO's and Helicopter mail on the side. |

Great looking Zeps Harry, one dealer that I spent most of the day with had about 75 different ones that I had caroused thru. And boy, there was a real nice price jump from the flight covers. At least I got to look at them dreaming.  |

Thanks Mac though I didn't include the baby Zep's in with the covers, you can see the back of the baby zep cover when your looking at the C11's.   |
