QEII Centennial Postal History. Interesting group of roughly 425 covers all franked with Centennial issues and Alberta town postmarks, 1969-1971. The lot is a correspondence to the Alberta Health Care Insurance Commission, noting various combinations of Centennial rates and frankings, including 1c uprated with non Centennial issues, solo Centennial frankings, combination Centennial frankings (1c to 10c stamps), coil usages, and more. The bonus of the lot is about 98% of the covers have Alberta town postmarks, mostly from Calgary and Edmonton, but did spot about 50 different towns including Warburg, Coronation, Vegreville, Caroline, Barrhead, and more, noting slogan, machine, cds, and a few others postmark types. A nice lot for the postmark or Centennial collector, as we have not checked for varieties, taggings, etc. A few faults with some of the covers as is the nature of commercial mail. Estimate =
