INDIANA & OHIO: 1865 NEW ALBANY INDIANA LETTER TO PENNSYLVANIA MISSENT TO YOUNGSTOWN OHIO AND FORWARDED TO YOUNGSVILLE PENNSYLVANIA Letter inside envelope is from New Albany, Indiana, and is addressed to Olds & Brother in Youngsville, Pennsylvania. However, it ended up in Youngstown Ohio where the postal agent postmarked the cover and then wrote missent and fwd by hand on the envelope. The letter is from M. P. Robinson, corner of Water and lower Fouth Streets and includes an order for five pumps and tubing. The writer goes to lengths to request that the order be shipped by train or boat...whichever is cheapest. Good reading. |

RARE MONACO 1956 ROYAL WEDDING STAMPS RARE COMMERCIAL COVER USE ACCORDING TO AN ARTICLE IN THE APS JOURNAL, "In 1956, Monaco issued a set of stamps to honor the marriage of movie star Grace Kelly to Prince Ranier. Almost everything to do with these stamps (from blocks of four to first day covers) are, today, rather inexpensive. However, true commercial usages of any of the stamps are quite rare. This seemingly common piece of mail from the Lancome perfume people is a major find worth well over $100!" THIS COVER HAS NO CONTENT. |
