Item Description

This illustrated World War II Patriotic cover was mailed from Amsterdam, New York to Wethersfield, Connecticut in 1944 franked by two 1-1/2-cent bister brown Martha Washington Presidential issues of 1938, Scott 805 (left stamp faulty). The stamps are tied to the envelope by a machine cancellation.

The cachet, designed by George V. Sadworth, depicts falling bombs and reads: 'Our Air Warden / For Aid, Comfort, and Protection for All.'

Opened by lifting, the backflap is un-sealed and intact. No contents or backstamps. Machine cancel set off on backflap.

The cover in the scan is the one you will receive. Light lines in images are SCANNER ARTIFACT!

Shipping always combined.
