FDC / Alberta Postmark Hoard. A collector's project of creating "home-made" First Day Covers, primarily from the late 1980's to early 1990's. A small bin packed with 1310 covers, primarily cancelled in Alberta, with a range of small towns to larger cities (but the cities, i.e. Edmonton, were usually cancelled at numbers "Sub" or "Retail" Post Offices). Heavily duplicated at times, the amount of time, effort and money spent to create this philatelic adventure was extensive. While there is smattering of FDC that were sent in private cachet envelopes, the majority are un-cacheted covers. A goldmine for the postmark or FDC collector than can see the same "philatelic vision" as the original collector. Estimate =
