C2 4-BLOCK, #113 x3 [15 øre 1926 Airmail; 30 øre 1925 Blue Christian X] (block F-VF/Fine, lower left stamp with sealed tear; other stamps F-VF) on 13 September 1926 large piece of cover from "KØBENHAVN / LUFTPOST 1". Block of the airmail stamps are very scarce on cover, even on piece. Just the three sound 15 øre stamps would sell as used stamps alone for $186 (9/08)! Priced at less than the "breakup value"!

C7 (VF, but gum soak stain) solo usage on 6 September 1938 cover from TØLLØSE to MÄNTTÄ, FINLAND with receiver. Airmail label; may have been unsealed printed matter; however the 15 øre seems only to pay the normal letter rate to Finland, but if printed matter, the surface component was 7 øre but I have not been able to confirm the air surcharge for printed matter to Finland. Unusual.

C7 x2 [15 øre 1934 Airmail] plus #221 Type I and #226 (all VF) on 7 øre (Fabr 128) 28 September 1939 postal card from BORUP, marked "Via Sverig" (Sweden) to the U.S.(Illinois). 46 øre convenience overpay of 45 øre rate. Airmail-franked postal cards are quite scarce. The airmail label (over the edge) is the one position in the sheet showing the form number and print date. Interesting message: It would seem that the card was sent via Sweden to avoid German interference since the war in Europe had already recently started.
