Scott #2172, 2175 [1986 5c olive green Hugo L. Black and 1987 10c Red Cloud, Great Americans issue] (VF) on 9 January 1990 scientific (medical) publication request form small-sized card to Colorado, from the College of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Minnesota at St. Paul. The stamps both have diagonal "U OF M" PERFINS. St. Paul machine cancellation. Perfins non-philatelically used in this late time period are quite unusual, especially on a small-size card or envelope. While not a scarce PERFIN, such a medical / veterinary use, especially on the Great Americans stamp issue, is sure to attract attention as it should. ACTUAL item. |

Scott #U273 [1884 2 cent brown on white paper Washington (round O in TWO) envelope] Used with VF appearance on front. Backside with aging. From JAMAICA, NY, May 2, to NYC, with 1884 receiver.
