Hi everyone. Very busy so I’ll just update quickly.
First of all, we’ve been approved as members of the ASDA, the American Stamp Dealer’s Association. I’m very happy and excited about this, and I’ll do my best to contribute.
OK we have some nice Wells Fargo covers and more coming up. I know I’m starting them higher than normal, but they’re really nice, the prices at a recent auction in California showed me what they’re worth, and I’ll just hold them and sell them for what they’re worth. PLEASE come see them on eBay. If I get some time I’ll try and put up a few pictures here. They’re really nice.
I’m also going to start two covers this coming weekend which we have NEVER had before.
One is a real honest to goodness U.S.S. Shenandoah flown cover. Lakehurst postmark, U.S.S. Patoka Postmark, right dates, July 3 & 4, U.S.S. Shenandoah handstamp, addressed from and to Eddie Buser just like the one pictured in the American Air Mail Catalog. I think it’s REALLY cool and I’ll get a picture up later. I have soooo much work.
I also will be listing a SUPER rare actually flown on the U.S.S. Macon cover. Frost ZRS5-B. Mellone/Ullman 10/28/33-1.1. Approximately 24 of them carried that’s it no more.
I have this picture available. Here, take a look:

Hi. This week’s auctions feature a few lovely pieces. I’m forcing myself to just choose one to show here, because I have sooooo much work.
This is an 1836 Stampless Folded Letter to Robert Lytle, from Root River, Michigan Territory. It’s from the Risvold collection. This item is listed on eBay now, can be seen there by clicking HERE , and bidding will end on April 3.
See you all soon.
