( rht 1063 1 I \\ir’Ui11fl 1}r-tJI Ii(,r\ ‘fti’tV o }EW 0 RD This handbook is published by Wisconsin Postal Hist ory Society not only to widen the philatelic world’s overall familiarity with Wisconsin’s postal history, but more particularly to fill two needs that direct ly affect both the collecting and study of Wisconsin Territorial Covers.

1. To give collectors and dealers precise statistic al facts as to what is rare or scarce or plentiful.

2. To bring word of other covers that are not listed here but which can in future be added,thereby making the W.P.H.S. lists more complete and authoritative. Please send information about such covers to Arthur Van Vlissingen, Box 912, Lake Forest, . During the four years while this handbook’s list was being compiled, the editors had ample opportunity to observe these needs. Covers of which dozens are in philatelic hands were often found priced higher than eq.ually attractive covers of which only one or three are known. And from time to time the list lengthened as word came of a substantial number of covers held by somebody whose interest in Wisconsin Territorial items had hitherto been unknown to the editors, des pite their own long addiction to that specialty. Digging in original source material has brought into this handbook a considerable bulk of totally new in formation. But also this book puts to use the best of previously published facts. The editors grateful ly acknowledge permission of authors and publishers to borrow data and illustrations from:

The First 100 Years of U. S. Territorial Postmarks, Carroll Chase and Richard McP. Cabeen, The American Philatelist, Jan.-Feb. 191114; U. S. Territorial Post mark Catalog, E. N. Sampson, 1950; Territorial Cover Collecting, U. S. Cancellation Club News, 1961.

So many collectors and dealers have assisted by sup plying information and suggestions that it becomes necessary to thank them collectively instead of nam ing them individually, as the editors would. prefer were space available for the complete roster. ‘I EDITORS •Harold E.
