Will have to get my son to do that on the weekend ...I`m not very techy Sorry
The first issue of the Fairhaven Heights Local Post was on May 30th, 1968 and the last on December 7th, 1971. The post ceased operations on August 12th, 1972. The operator was Herbert Harrington of Warren, Ohio. There were a total of 30 different locals produced. So, which one do you have?

Thankyou
I am fortunate to have the APOLLO 11 Salutes the crew of APOLLO 12
I appreciate the information I like to document the creator of the posts and this info is perfect
Do you collect Local Posts?
found this listing of local posts on the web. Maybe of interest.

Mike Thanks for posting the local post sites...I refer to it often but it lacks that who and how long info...That is why I have to ask these dumb questions lol Stamporama members always come through with the answers for me
The Apollo 11 issue was a sheetlet of 4 stamps. Issued on November 14th, 1969 and 80 FDCs were posted in Brookfield, Ohio. All of Fairhaven Heights LP issues were in perforated sheets of 4 - I believe they were printed on gummed address labels. I was an ardent collector of Modern US Local Posts during the 70's and constantly wrote to the operators of the various posts for statistical info. #s issued, #s of FDCs, format, etc. I worked on a "definitive" catalog and was able to release 2 volumes covering LPs from A through M through about 1975. Somewhere I have the info for N through Z to about the end of 1980. Life started to interfere (daughter Jaime born in 1976 and Melisa in 1979), career changes, moving, etc. and there was less and less time. Oh, well, maybe someday I'll finish. I also amassed a sizable collection during the 70's and eventually plan to offer some in Auctions and Approvals here on SOR.
Seems I got a little long winded here, sorry about that.

Not at all...That information would be lost if you had not documented it..I certainly would be interested in tapping in to those catalogues. Information on Fireside , Davis and Fabian Posts are also in my radar. I have found only a name in each case. Washington Local Post is the latest in my collection and I have a letter sent to see what I can find out....So hint hint.
I have a modest Local Post collection and just received a Fairhaven Heights Cover Can anyone tell me who created this local post or shed any light on the history behind it ?
