Canada Covers

First Flight Covers (FFC). An accumulation of 328 covers, in a small box, with 210 of them being first flights pre-1940 with emphasis on Western Canada and then 118 post-1960 flights or anniversary of flight covers. A nice glimpse into the hey-day Canadian airmail during the late 1920's to the 1940's including some better usages, but also some of the more "modern" flights which can prove to be more elusive as there were only small batches flown. We noted a couple of Cherry Red Airline semi-official covers, a Northern Air Serivce semi-official cover (pilot signed) and a few dozen of the covers with either the better C2 or C4 stamp franking.
