Canada Covers

Almost three hundred private cachet First Day Covers filling a small box. About half are Cole, 1/3 are "NR Covers" and the balance is Harford. There are a number of "one offs" (such as local societies or for stamp shows), and then a small number of philatelic show covers (non-first day) including illustrated cachet and show postmarks. Great condition, most unaddressed and all are individually sleeved, most with a label on the sleeve with the Scott #. There is a bit of minor duplication, usually when there is a multiple as well as a single or a different postmark. The majority are 1965-1980, with the strength being 1969-1974 (before Canada Post got into the FDC business). A very popular collecting area! Estimate =
