Here is a negatiive "S" from Schroon Lake, NY.
This is a Masonic cancel from Bucksport, ME. An open book inside a six point star.
This group of FLS have a small red pointing finger next to the word paid. Top cover is from Cocord, NH, 1833. The next two are both from Hartford, CT, 1848

Here are some new additions.
Two Postal Cards with Chicago Blue Cancels.
Here are two "Tiny" covers. The first is a Christmas card in an envelope 66x54mm. There is also a Campbels Soup kid sticker on the back .
This cover is 62x47mm.
That is glitter in the seal.
Four page folded letter.

Here is a postal card mailed 40 days after the Great San Fransisco Earthquake and Fire of 1906. It was important for insurance companies to set up shop to help with the rebuilding of the city. This fits into several of my collecting interests. Insurance, Fire and Disaster.

One more scan or today. Here is a cover I purchased because it had an experimental Patent cancel. Patent cancels were used to cut or scar the stamps to help the cancelling ink soak in and help to advoid reuse. The back flap was attached by a hinge so I wanted to reinforce the flap. When I did so I discovered that this was also an turned cover. These are scans of the cover front, interior and the patent holes on the inside of the cover.

Finally was able to add this rare S/S from Belgium
Now I need a mount of the right size for it. Had to rig it as best as I could temporarily.

Stopped at the Bangkok GPO on Saturday where there was a show and a few dealers. I picked up the missing first series Rama 5 1885 postcard for my Siam collection. Although this will complete my collection of the first series postcards, that isn't strictly true. The one below was produced using two different sized fonts. This is the larger font. The surcharge to 4 atts was the international postcard rate. (There is actually one more card from the first series with a "4" overprinted in each corner of the printed stamp, but this is possibly a bogus issue.)
This is the space it will fill.
