Worldwide Mourning Covers
|
|
Great Britain. Fascinating bundle of Edward VII to early QEII mourning covers and post cards. Includes five covers sent postage free with the Royal cypher cancel. We noted there are six postcards in honour of the deaths of Queen Victoria, King Edward VII (4) and Churchill. The largest portion of the lot is about 50 covers, with strength in Edward VII and GeoV showing a wide range of envelopes, including one from a WWI field post office. One of the few items that doesn’t have mourning border is a 1917 registered postal stationery envelope which contains a book of memorial. Very mixed condition, but a very difficult to assemble grouping. Estimate =
