Philatelic covers are genuine.They have been canceled and mailed.The only difference is that people would send the letters to themselves or collectors because of the stamps on them.Yes; they are genuine letters.The last one is less common.
.

Sure. So, how can you tell the 'first day cover' is sent to self?

the first cover is dated 27 DE 40.From what I read ;it was the first day the Germans authorized bicsected stamps on Guernsey.(That makes it more interesting).
2 different 27 DE 40 cancels_ Both genuine ?



__________________________________________________________________________

An example on e bay 65$ This cover has the dented cancel type (left side) + the "0" made into a "1" type in 1941.

_______________________________________________________________________________
This one sold Grosvenor Auction: £220 - Dented cancel on the left & trimmed "0" in 1941

A perfect example of a Philatelic cover. Fancy arrangements of the stamps,canceled the 28 DE 1940.(He didn't wait long to get those Bisects on cover!.....

The 27 DE 1940 cancel on a stamp of the stamp !
