 1912 Cover Mailed
from Nanking, China to Victoria, British Columbia, franked with a pair of 5c Chinese Imperial Post Dragon issues, tied by Nanking City c.d.s. to cover addressed to Victoria BC, via Shanghai (FEB.10 and FEB.13 transits on back). The cover is from
The President’s Office / National Huazhong University in Nanking, and is addressed to "Mr. Lim Bang / The Bang of Vancouver" in Victoria. This is probably a play on words, as the addressee was a well known banker in British Columbia. The accompanying
album page includes a newspaper article on Mr. Bang, written when he died in 1974. The vertical Chinese characters on the cover say something like “The gratitude of Lin Libin” and the cover was mailed shortly after the newly formed Republic of China.
Pinholes do not detract from this otherwise very fine cover. (Scan 1)
