Henry Morgan Correspondence. Part 4. The fourth and final in a series of four lots (all offered in this sale) from the correspondence of Henry Morgan. Morgan, a civil servant, lawyer, author and editor compiled information on notable Canadians for use in his many biographical sketch publications he produced. A stunning mounted collection of exhibit pages containing 40 covers / postcards from 1864-1904. Expertly written up, these covers are neatly described on each page as to who the sender was and (often) the reason of sending the cover. Although these had the enclosures at one time, with the exception of one, they are no longer with the covers. MANY better items here including 12 stampless covers, Winnipeg 1883 registered, Toronto 1875 Queen's Hotel CC, Winnipeg 1884 Tecumseh Hotel cover, Brockville 1877 cover w/ enclosure, Ottawa 1882 Drop Letter (2c rate), Ottawa 1877 1c Local cover and a Brockville ONT 1875 Small Queen cover with attractive cork cancels. An interesting and historical offering. Estimate =
