Reverse with Victoria Sub No. 1 MOOD (Aug 16), two strikes, Victoria cds (Aug 16) and Montreal B&F Div (Aug 21). Airmail rates to Europe were rarely used at this time. Jan 1, 1928 to July 31, 1928 8c per ounce, 4c per additional ounce August 1, 1928 to Feb 28, 1930 , 13c per ounce, plus 14c per additional ounce March 1, 1930 15c per ounce So this cover appears to have been paid using the former rate in effect from August 1, 1928 to Feb 28, 1930 at 13c per ounce, plus 10c registration for a total of 23c postage paid and allowed. The rate should have actually been 15c per ounce, plus 10c registration for a total of 25c, as the cover was mailed in August 1930 after the rate went into effect on March 1, 1930.

133 CVR image1941 Nordenham, Germany (8 11 42) to POW Camp 12, care of Chief Postal Censor, Great Britain, redirected to Canada, c/o Commissioner of Internment Operations,, pink "Canada Int. Op Censored (crown 45" for Camp 45, then blue in pencil "40" circled. Small tape stain. Prisoner with a low number "S.N.o. 000901". Very unusually, there is a blue boxed "P/W Middle East 165" and a rare "Prisoners of War Censorship Middle East" at right. The Base APO Canada (JUL 20 1942) machine cancel ties the Middle East censor tape suggesting the cover may have been sent to the MIddle East. The return address is "Ludwigstr 24, Germany" which doesn't suggest it was from one POW to another. Most intriguing as there is no indication that it was to be sent to the Middle East, So it looks like it originated in Germany, was sent to Chief Postal Censor in Great Britain, likely then sent to a Middle East POW Camp, and then to Ottawa, Camp 45 and Camp 40. I could find only one other example of the Middle East censor tape online and it was on a "plain cover" priced at £120.

137 CVR imageStampless. 1778 SFL dateline “Londre le 11th Avril 1778” to Montreal. The letter was likely carried during a convoy under British Royal Navy protection to Quebec where it was marked “Ship 11 1/2” being 2d Stg (2 1/2d Cy) incoming ship letter fee plus 9d postage to Montreal. Although the 1778 Lloyd’s of London sailings are not available online (they are missing), this letter likely travelled in the convoy. This ship letter marking predates the tiny “fhip” marking used at Quebec from 1779-1780, of which there are two recorded, and priced at $10,000 each in the very old (1992) Canada Specialized catalogue. This is the only Revolutionary War incoming ship letter with a manuscript ship marking that I have recorded. Stienhart owned three incoming Revolutionary War letters, none of which had a ship marking. (R) Some interesting fact about the two people involved. In 1759 Thomas Pecholier, the writer was naturalized by an Act recorded in the Journal of the House of Lords, Vol 29, p. 457. In 1770, Pecholier and others, petition the government for fishing rights on the Labrador coast. In the Papers of Robert Morris, Cazeau is referred to as a Canadian refugee at the end of the Revolutionary War and Congress is involved in his claim for moneys for good collected for the US and destroyed by the enemy. This includes orders of wheat to US General Benedict Arnold, ships of rum for General Burgoyne for over $22,000.

The US P PAID 25 is a rare handstamp of interest to US collectors as the postmaster acted as an agent of the UP Post Office.

British military records show a Company Sergent Richard Lynch serving in the Coldstream Guards, who based on his connection with this letter, likely served in Canada and returned to England with the unit in 1842.

150 CVR image#35 1c Small Queen tied by Woodstock, Ontario cds (De 30 1896) to Pelham Union, Ontario, ms "private postcard". The card meets the minimum dimensions of a postcard (greater than 3.25" x 2.25") but it breaks the rule of being made of thick cardboard. The regulation read "The material used to be ordinary card board not thicker than that used for the cards by the Department". It should be letter rated, but presumably allowed as printed matter. The reverse has a printed message, "Wishing You a Happy New Year / C.H. Hill Woodstock".
