185 Commercial PNC Covers - 18c, 20c Flags, Transportation & Bulk Rate
I personally collected all of these covers myself, or was given or sent them by close friends who were aware of my weird collecting habit. My thought was that in addition to filling gaps in my cover collection, I might become a dealer one day. Life got in the way of that latter thought but for a few sporadic attempts to get kickstarted. lol
Using shorthand, I’ll try and list all that’s in this group... It consists of 18c Flags : 1#2, 2#4 and 1#5; 20c Flags: 16 #2, 12 #3, 5 #4, 18 #5, 3#6, 43#8, 31#9, 14#10 and 14#12 + ( one shifted 20% to the right, No# ); Surreys : 1#5, 2#6 and 1#7; Fire Pumpers : 1#5 and 1#10; Washington Presort : 3#33333; Hansom Cab : 2#1 (each w/Line Pairs); Oil Wagon : 1#3 ( Perched Parrot - No # ); Coal Car : 2#2; Bulk Rate Oil Wagon : 1#3; Tractor-Trailer : 1#1; Bulk Rate Eagle : 1#A22113; Wheel Chair : 1#1, 2#3; Carreta : 1#2 + 1#2 ( with Blank Wheel ); Tractor 7.1c : 1#1 + 1#1 (with dated backstamp); and... Canoe Add’l Nonprofit : 1#1, 1#2. ( NOTE: Regarding the Hansom Cabs: Both Ron Peloquin and I were quasi-dealers/collectors at the time we received those covers, and therefore both should be considered philatelicly inspired. That said, they still are pretty, were sent on legitimate commercial errands, and will certainly help hold a place in your album until you get an example of the real thing!)
The condition, but for light soil, rough opening or handling crinkles, is VeryGood or better. Shipping weight is 3 pounds, and they will be shipped via Media Mail domestically.
I welcome questions and/or comments.
