Canada Covers

Federal and Provincial Governments "Free" mail in three small shoe boxes and a binder. In order of appearance, there is a small bundle of provincial (mostly Ontario) usages of free privilege postcards (often for vital statistics) in the early to mid-1900's. There is a handful of nice Ottawa "Free" machine cancels (sometimes in English, sometimes bilingual), which are often sought by slogan cancel collectors. There is a larger amount of covers with OHMS/Government usage with lots of departmental envelopes and markings, including meters. Lastly, there is a batch of Post Office forms on cards, and a small, mounted collection with examples of various post office "Free" mail. Several hundred items fill most of a banker’s box. Estimate=
