British Columbia Postal History. Fisherman's Cove 1939 CDS postmark on cover. A cover posted from Montreal QC on August 10th 1939 on the First Flight Airmail to Foynes, Ireland. After being carried on the flight, the cover was "returned to sender" which was the Postmaster at Fisherman's Cove BC and received a CDS postmark on the reverse of the cover dated August 31st 1939. The Fisherman’s Cove Post Office is rated as an "E" cancel in Topping and a "E1" (1-3 known examples) in Tracy Cooper’s BC post office rating update. A nice strike of one of the tougher to fine BC post office cancels, which operated as a summer office only between 1937 and 1950. Estimate =
