Item Description

POSTAL HISTORY: FIVE ITEMS; 1868-1975, (Scott #s incl 94 & 1520), starting with the earliest cover and moving clockwise in the first scan the first cover is a 3c Grill (probably #94 cats $11+), tied by grid to cover, Sept 1868 usage, incl lengthy content IN FRENCH, stamp is SE and has flaws, next we have a small cover w 8c Bureau on face and 5c Blue (UPU color #281 ON REVERSE -cats $16.50 for the combo), NYC with REGISTRY LABEL to Messina ITALY, Registered, label or tape on reverse (?), bit messy, individual scan shows reverse, next 1c #632 on 1932 CHRISTMAS post card (looks a bit older than this period), postmarked BURNS with line in straightline form, this is from Wisconsin and I don't believe it is a precancel, addressed Whitewater WI, then an Airmail cover franked with 10c Coil (six examples of #1520), returned for better address, addr England, showy, tiny bit of flap missing, finally a 2c Entire used from NYC in 1932 with ALL-OVER JEWELRY advertising on back, building was 16-18 Maiden Lane (individual scan shows reverse), this was New York's jewelry district before it moved to 46th Street, some tiny flaws, Fine-VF. GREAT find and a real opportunity!

Retail about $90 total.
