Scott #2 Block of Four [1938 5 øre King, Type 1] (VF) on neat and attractive 22 May 1939 cover from CHRISTIANSHAAB to Farum, Denmark, franked with 20 øre, thus overpaid by 5 øre (15 øre rate: 1 December 1938 through 30 June 1940). XF strike of the cancellation; Daka GF6 (1997) cancellation #13.Bro.01, which was listed in 1997 with a value of DKK 350 on cover. The envelope is addressed to "Herr Kunstmaler [(artistic) painter] Em A. Petersen" which is very likely Emanuel Aage Petersen, a famous Greenlandic painter, one of the so-called "Greenland Painters". It is worth doing an online search to see some of his beautiful Greenlandic paintings. A very attractive cover.
