image Collection of Halifax Airmail Surcharge Varieties on Cover, includes Unitrade numbers C3, C3 (with high surcharge, unlisted), C3b, C3f, C3h and the scarce C3j (only 556 stamps known, probably very few on cover). All were mailed from St John's between November 18 and 26, 1921. The C3j cover is accompanied by a letter from 1956 written by Anthony J. Annetts from Cassington, England explaining how rare it is, and his price of £15 for this and another C3 cover. A few small faults, still an overall fine to very fine group. (Image)

image 1932 Dornier DO-X Flight Cover, mailed St John's on MAY.19.1932 (slogan machine) to Brooklyn, New York (no receiver on back) and endorsed "Trans-Atlantic Airmail (West to East) per Dornier "DO-X" with a prominent return address of St John's. Most covers from this flight were mailed to England, with a few going to Germany, Spain or Portugal, but we do not recall seeing any others addressed to New York. An article in the May/June 1988 Newfie Newsletter by Bertram Warr explains that on May 19, 1932 the plane had been repaired in New York City and left there for Germany, via Dildo Arm NL, then Holyrood NL (for refueling). There was therefore a connection between St John's and New York on that day, but "the other way around". An interesting and very fine cover with only a few light wrinkles and erased pencil writing.
