5062 imageArctic Exploration 1850/51: Balloon Message slip printed on yellow silk (150 x 60 mm.), an unused example made for the Expedition led by Sir John Ross in his search for the ill-fated Sir John Franklin Expedition, which had left London in May 1845 with the ships "Erebus" and "Terror" intending to explore the Canadian Arctic region. They reached Greenland and headed North but were never seen again. Four years later Ross set out in the schooner "Felix" to Lancaster Sound, largely to restore his name after finding the famous North West passage but not recognising he had done so due to ice-blindness (it was later 'found' again by his colleagues on that journey), to search for Franklin and traces of his crew. The Balloon slips were used to attach or be placed inside small balloons, marking where provisions could be found and indicating where the despatching ship intended to spend the winter months when icebound. Ross failed to find Franklin or any of his men and Ross returned to England in October 1851 by way of Greenland, where he encountered rumours that Franklin and his party were all dead. Although most people disregarded these, Ross stood by them. An extraordinary item for the Balloon specialist and the first example this describer has seen (Image 1) (Image 2)

90136A cover image1871: Canada 1 cent blue Queen Victoria postal card, uprated with Great Britain 1872 ½ d, rose, plate 14, perforations mainly fine, used locally within London, dated 27 December 1873, tied by LONDON CHARING CROSS “21” duplex (FE 27 73), addressed locally to Guilford Lawn. Card originally issued in New Brunswick, with printed message of the Fairville Church Mission (Carleton, St. John, Nov. 1873). The card carried to England and re-used there, uprated by GB ½ d. There is a central vertical crease well clear of the adhesive (pulled perforation at base) and imprint. A remarkable and highly unusual “contrary to regulations” usage of a Canadian postal card, made valid in Britain by the addition of a GB ½ d, is exceptionally unusual. Rare and exhibition-worthy (Image 1) (Image 2)

90136C cover imageCanada – Bahamas 1876: Small Queens 3 cents dull red, horizontal pair, of good colour, odd perforation flaw, used on yellow envelope from Stratford, Ontario to Bahamas, dated 24 January 1876, endorsed “Via Savannah” (Georgia), tied by light strikes of STRATFORD ONT. cds in black, with clear red NEW YORK / JAN 27 circular transit, manuscript “3” in red credit to the U.S. and “4” in blue Bahamas charge mark, both applied in transit. Franking paying the correct 6 ¢. composite rate (3 ¢. Canadian postage to the United States + 3 ¢. US treaty postage to the Bahamas). Despite the endorsement “Via Savannah”, the letter was routed by the US Post Office through New York as the most expeditious route. The left adhesive has trimmed perforations at base on right and there are some small tears and wear to edges of envelope. An attractive and well-preserved example of pre-UPU treaty mail between two non-member territories. Scarce and desirable Canada–Bahamas cover, illustrating complex postal accounting between Canada, the US, and the Bahamas. Very few examples of this correspondence are recorded. Exhibit item: a key item for collectors of Canadian Small Queens, US treaty mails, or Bahamas postal history (Image 1) (Image 2)
