Cuba 1939 - Sc C31 - (EDIFIL 333) First Day Cover with Official cachet. Oct.15, 1939 First Day Cover. This stamp was issued in conjunction with the First Experiment of the Postal Rocket (Primer Experimento del Cohete Postal) in Cuba. Cover is lightly addressed in pencil to (C. J.) Dale, Apartado 714, Habana. Mr. Dale, as you may know, was an Englishman that lived in Havana for many years and that created many of the philatelic items we treasure today. If an unaddressed FDC is desired, the address could be very easily erased (but if you ask me, I would leave it just as it is!). Scarce cover. |
