Ontario Post Office collection 1970's / 1980's. Focused on a few areas which include Don Mills, Scarborough, Weston, Willowdale and Post Offices with the postal code beginning in N0A, N0B, N0C and N0E. A collector's project of collecting images (photographs) of the Post Office accompanied by a cover postmarked at the same location. Banker's box of 7 binders with pages containing 120 covers and 108 photographs from a wide array of both city and rural Post Offices, neatly arranged by postal code with most pages featuring one cover and one photograph to showcase the Post Office. These were all created as one-of-a-kind items, purely for the collector, who was (whether he realized it or not) preserving the history of the Post Office during that period. Some pages have foxing from storage, although most of the covers and photographs appear to be fine. You can imagine the time and cost it would take to produce this! Estimate =
