I`m not sure where to post this but here goes. Do any members collect Carnation Milk postal items esp illustrated covers? I see one or two on ebay from the US Are there any from Canada or elsewhere? Were there ever any stamps issued featuring the brand? Just curious.

re: Carnation Milk illusrated covers etc

Hi Cheryl:

The only Carnation-related cover I have is the National Airmail Week cover and accompanying letter prepared by the Carnation Company. The cachet of this cover shows PMG James Farley christening the Oconomowoc, WI post office with a can of Carnation Evaporated Milk. The letter informs readers that Oconomowoc was the location of one of Carnation's largest plants and its can factory. I assume you have this cover and letter, but I post an image for the folks that don't.
