  • Certified Mail and Its First Day of Issue by Patrick Crosby a Stamp Collector Can Complete a Scott U.S
    Certified Mail and Its First Day of Issue By Patrick Crosby A stamp collector can complete a Scott U.S. back-of-the-book category with just one stamp valued at 75¢ mint or used. I’m referring to the 1955 Certified Mail stamp (Scott # FA1) which helped the U.S. Post Office Department (P.O.D.) inaugurate Certified Mail service. This stamp and Certified Mail become much more interesting when on cover, like the featured postcard’s first day of issue usage. Postmaster General Arthur Summerfield called the new Certified Mail service a “change in the registered mail service,” reducing costs to patrons and speeding delivery on at least 25 million letters a year. Registered mail requires special bundling, recording of information, and security at every handling point. For 15¢ Certified Mail would offer proof of mailing and proof of receipt with no indemnity (insurance) or special security on first-class items that have no intrinsic value as opposed to the minimum 40¢ registry fee. A patron would pay for first-class postage and the Certified Mail fee, then he would receive a numbered receipt. The mailed item would be entered into the ordinary mail stream (unless airmail or special delivery) with a two-part Certified Mail label, one part adhered to the envelope. When delivered, the carrier or postal employee was to have the receipt portion signed by a recipient, then remove the receipt portion where rouletted and return it to the delivery post office for filing. If the patron had requested a return receipt (showing when, where, and to whom an item was delivered) it would have been noted on the mailed item and a fee of 7¢ would have been paid for in postage.

  • Invalid Use of a Postal Card Stamp by Patrick Crosby What Was Bill Johnson Thinking? Perhaps He Wasn’T Thinking
    Invalid Use of a Postal Card Stamp By Patrick Crosby What was Bill Johnson thinking? Perhaps he wasn’t thinking. He tried to mail a letter using a 1¢ cut-out from a postal card. Eventually he paid the proper 3¢ letter rate. A few clues that something was amiss would tip off a postal clerk in Rochester, NY. First off, a clerk would be aware of the color scheme being used on U.S. stamps—green equals a 1c stamp, the card rate, and violet equals a 3¢ stamp, the basic letter rate. So a lone green stamp on an envelope is a red flag. And then there is mutilation. Only the Postmaster General could determine the government postal card size. Any change in a postal card’s size is considered mutilation and “…renders the stamp impressed thereon valueless.” Bill had neatly cut around the stamp portion of the reply half of a message-reply card and glued it to the envelope. In effect, on February 4, 1941, he mailed a letter without postage. Underneath the later added 3¢ violet stamp is a “Due 3 cents.” marking. A straight-line “Feb 5-1941” shows up as a date control marking. Then Bill comes forward with the proper postage and “Postage subsequently paid by writer” is added. A parcel/general purpose dateless roller cancels the stamp. The letter is then on its way with a second Rochester, NY postmark. If there was a chance that a postal clerk could miss the above irregularities and went to send the letter at the card rate, the item was still taller (top to bottom) at 3¾” than the 3 9/16” allowed by postal regulations for cards at the time.

    Waypoint Volume 10, Issue 1 Quarterly Newsletter for our Chapters Summer 2019 All Ohio, Aux Plaines, Chicago Area, Greater Kansas City, Greater St. Louis, Indiana, Indiana Dunes, Iowa, Kentucky Bluegrass, Lake Erie, Michigan, Minnesota, Northwoods, Scioto Valley, and Wisconsin Racing Goes to Canada - ARC 201 9 by Minnetta Gardinier (Iowa) Have you considered flying in Canada? How difficult is it? How different is it? It’s not “rocket science.” It’s not all that different from flying in the U.S., but you do have to do some homework. It’s just another checklist - passport, U.S. Customs & Border Patrol sticker, FCC Radio Station/Operator’s licenses, FAA 3rd class medical or better. The rewards of flying Canada were well worth the extra legwork to get ready to race this year. And at the Terminus, the racers were international pilots! The Air Race Classic (ARC) has flown to Canada before - Toronto (1999) and St. John (20017). These were “before my time” racing, and they were one-off stops - The Terminus. Fly over the border, clear customs, and you’re done. In building the Inside this issue: 2019 course, I quickly decided that “Hey, it’s all the same amount of paperwork. Let’s FLY Canada! Let’s visit some Canadian airports and cities!” So we flew timing Waypoint Schedule 4 lines and stopped in Sault Ste. Marie (US/CA both), North Bay, Brantford, and Welland - all in Ontario. Our Terminus at Niagara Central Dorothy Rungeling Airport AEMSF 5 was just 30 minutes from Niagara Falls and named for a Canadian racer.

  • The First Commemorative Postal Issue by Patrick Crosby
    The First Commemorative Postal Issue by Patrick Crosby Did you know that a post boy, the namesake of our monthly Post Boy journal, appeared on the first United States, and perhaps the world’s first, commemorative postal issue of any type? He is shown on a galloping horse along with a multi-line telegraph and an express train with mail car, showing how far U.S. communications had come by 1876. But this is not an adhesive postage stamp like the 1893 Columbian Commemorative series, this a stamped Two colors of the 1876 Centennial envelope, red envelope. on commercial size envelope, and green on personal size envelope. A post boy on the 2¢ stamp (shown) is from an 1869 postage stamp series that also included the scenes of The Landing of Columbus and The Declaration of Independence. However, these are considered to be regular, definitive stamps and not commemoratives. As part of the United States’ 100th anniversary celebration of independence, Philadelphia, PA hosted the 1876 Centennial International Exposition of American Cultural and Industrial Progress. The exposition was an overall Scott #113 success with 30,864 exhibits of products, art, and manufacturing from almost every country in the world. Back in 1871 when planning started there was apprehension over Great Britain since, we had secured our independence from them. Surprisingly, Great Britain and her colonies provided 3,584 of the exhibits! The exposition opened May 10 and closed November 10, 1876. Instead of an adhesive stamp or a postal card, the USPOD (United States Post Office Department) decided to issue a commemorative envelope which would be printed and available only at the exposition.
