image Extensive Collection of Grey County Postal History, in 10 volumes, with a total of 721 covers and cards ranging from the earliest to modern. Items are neatly displayed on pages with in-depth descriptions of the rates, routes and postmarks, as well as information on each post office, from Aberdeen to Yeovil (Owen Sound is a separate lot), showing opening and closing dates (some were only open for a very short period), etc. It is immediately evident that this collector sought the best possible strikes for each postmark (with early and late dates), and was conscientious about quality of each item he added to the collection. There are too many good items to describe here, so we have selected a few scans for Stamp Auction Network, and have also scanned every page on our website, not only for our customers' viewing enjoyment, but for preservation's sake. This collection is loaded with goodies, such as stampless, Cents, Large Queen, Small Queen covers, a good quantity of registered material, either with single frankings (eg. 8c SQ, Leaf and Numerals) or with Registration stamps, and we note some very nice early Money Letters. We note covers, stationery cards, picture post cards, registration receipts, etc., and we note all sorts of postmarks including pre-instrument manuscripts, r.p.o., many broken circles (a very quick spot check revealed some unreported instruments, as well as many earliest and latest dates), c.d.s., "changelings", duplex, registration and much more. We noted a stampless folded letter with a unique manuscript datestamp from "Derby" which never opened (this is illustrated in "Canadian Manuscript Town Postmarks" by Handelman and Poitras). A lovely collection, well worth a close look. (Image)

The collection puts emphasis on all of the postmarks used at that office up to 1902, including the newly recorded earliest date for the Owens Sound (as it was called then) double broken circle (11 Decr 47), several "changelings", broken circles, three 4-ring 26 covers, two of which are dated earlier than the current earliest recorded date, a scarce 2-ring #44 cover, c.d.s., squared circles, all sorts of manuscript and handstamped rates, various cork cancels, and much more. We also note advertising covers (including illustrated), registered (including F1 and F2), a November 1888 cover with deep rose carmine 2c registration and 3c SQ (both quite deep and bright), cancels in blue, three covers (with 1c SQ and 3c SQ) dated in 1870, and much more. All in all a lovely collection / exhibit which took a lifetime to assemble, with many choice items and with very nice quality throughout. We have scanned all pages in our Gallery for your viewing pleasure. (Image)
