Well struck 11 MAI 03 S. Nicolau hand cancel ties 65-réis on 200-réis stamp franking mourning cover to New Bedford Massachusetts, red thimble LONDON MY 29 05 transit almost  complete on back, arrival marking at New Bedford also struck on back although at a slant that puts a lot of it in the black area. Sold but still available for scholarly study & research as an enlarged (about 771% of original print area) & enhanced 200-dpi scan in .jpg or .tif format. $2.00 c

     
From the same time period as the above, from the isle of Brava (smallest in Cabo Verde), a small mourning cover to the same address in New Bedford Massachusetts. In addition to the black borders, the back has an X pattern in black, so it is hard to read the return address (except for Brava clear as a bell) or the cancel & Lisboa transit mark that both tie the 20-réis stamp on the back (2 short perfs at one corner). The back has 3 hinge remnants which may yield to patient advances. The front has a pair of 15-réis stamps; one of those stamps has a corner perf folded inward. The cancel that ties the pair of 15-réis stamps is light but almost complete BRAVA - S. JOAO BAPTISTA.  We believe this mail went by ferry, whether stopping or skirting Fogo on its way; making a beeline for Praia, it would have landed at Sao Joao Baptista, a valley just west of that capital on the Island of Santiago! As for condition, the small chunk of the corner is gone & the small signs of wear around the edge are magnified by their contrast with the black. We cannot recall ever seeing a ferry cancel from Cabo Verde in anyone's stock. An enlarged & enhanced scan of the cancel will be sent on serious inquiry; our scan above right is just the thumbnail of it, after being cropped & rotated for ease of reading. $300.00 c*

Three are registered Praia at different rates (2 shown at left); another forwarded on arrival. Some minor faults present, but seldom seen material. Some of the material exhibits practice of sealing the envelopes with stamps & some Lisboa transit marking make the backs interesting (example shown at right has both qualities). Most are postmarked from the larger cities such as Praia & Mindelo. The principal appeal is a good variety of stamps on non-philatelic mail to a better destination. $87.00

Most 1968 - 1970 15-cover lot from a church correspondence, all from Praia Cabo Verde to England. All but one are #6 envelopes. Minor faults present, but seldom seen material. The principal appeal is a good variety of stamps on non-philatelic mail to a better destination.$15.00 ce
