1309 CVR   image1916 S.S. Newton Maritime Disaster Mail Cover to Sweden, the handstamp on back translates to "Damaged by extinguishing / water on board the steamer / Newton in Sunderland / on 14 February 1916". Apparently fire broke out in the mail while the ship was still in port, but wasn't reported to the Port Officer so that the ship could sail out on time. Mailed from Twin Butte Alberta (no postmark, but return address on back), stamps were washed off by the water used to extinguish the fire. There are two Stockholm receivers on back dated FEB.26.1916. Very fine and scarce, with fewer than 35 covers known. (Scan 1) (Scan 2) (All Scans)
