First Day Covers / British Columbia Postmarks. An interesting and unusual lot of 349 First Day Covers, dated 2005-2015, each bearing an unusual "modern" illustrated cachet and being cancelled from around the province of BC. The postmarks in this group are quite interesting, as the collector made a point of travelling to all-ends of the province to acquire postmarks from as many different BC post offices as he could (for example, the 2005 "Hockey" series, which has all the FDC cancelled at different areas of the mid-Vancouver Island region, which means he would have travelled between those post offices on that day). A huge variety of postmarks, including many "modern" offices which were often only open for a short-period alongside dozens of "illustrated" postmarks which were often only used for special occasions. These are totally unchecked and "one of a kind" as they were made by the collector for his own collection. Estimate =
