Scott #B60 [1957 35+10 øre carmine Nordkapp semi-postal] (VF) solo use on 3 July 1962 tourist picture post card (Nordkapp visitor hall during midnight sun) sent to Sweden. NORDKAPP illustrated handstamped cancellation; VF strike on stamp. Multiple types of this postmark exist; compare carefully. Correct 35 øre franking for Nordic post card rate (1 July 1962 - 15 Nov 1964). Used on the THIRD DAY OF THIS POSTAL RATE. Even though Sweden is right next door, Nordkapp covers and cards to Sweden are remarkably unusual; I was lucky to obtain a small group from a collection built in Sweden. This stamp is hard to find as a correct, non-philatelic solo use on cover or card and especially for the Nordic post card rate. The single used stamp itself is a somewhat scarce stamp; it has a 2025 Scott value of $7.50. Very attractive example. ACTUAL item. |
