Postal Strike Mail. An interesting accumulation of 41 covers, sent by various modes of private post / courier mail during the 1971 postal strike. A wide array of named services including Pegasus Postal Strike, Evesham Stamp Club Local Post, London Express Service, Bannockburn Parcel, The District Postal Service, Attlesborough Pirate Post, Glasgow Courier, Midland Rocket Mail, Leicester Space Rocket Mail and "Grant's Post Office." A very unusual and interesting view into the many philatelically inspired "local posts" that sprung up when the post office stopped. Estimate =
