Saskatchewan Postmarks Collection. The complementary collection (from the same collector) to accompany the previous lot of postmarks. This time being 444 covers / postcards and 582 cancels / pieces PLUS a wealth of local town information and related ephemera, organized by "Provincial Zone" within 8 large binders. A labour of love / lifetime of enjoyment went into creating this collection, which transcends the usual boundaries of stamp / postmark collecting. Most of the material is Elizabethan in era, but earlier material is scattered throughout. The pictures will only tell a portion of the entire story with this one. A wealth of information here, with Post Offices identified as to open/closing dates, "claim to fame" and Historical Data. Often, there are pages created but with no item yet, just awaiting the postmark to be found. A great opportunity, offered intact as received. Estimate =
