Canada Covers

First Day Covers. Giant stamp estate holding of "#8" sized FDC, primarily from the 1960's / 1970's within a small plastic tote. A mix of private cachet, non-cachet, commercial FDC (sourced from a mail-room near the collector) and early Canada post "small size" cachet First Day Covers (before switching to the larger format we know today). Strength in the privately produced cachets, of which we noted several makers including Cole, Rose Craft, "Globe" generic and a very decent run of Victoria BC locally produced "Brickley-Jones" covers. Easily 800 covers here, most addressed to the original collector here in BC. An excellent opportunity for the FDC collector to sort these out. Estimate =
