Scott #C20 [1935 25c blue Trans-Pacific Airmail] Bottom plate number 21476 plate block of 6 with narrow margin. Mint, lightly hinged only on top center stamp; the other five stamps NH. XF centering as the whole plate block, but a couple of the single stamps even better. Extremely nice centering for this plate block -- usually the centering varies greatly within the block. Wonderfully fresh and attractive with dark blue color shade. (Scott 2022 $20 as NH plate block with normal VF centering. This has one LH stamp, but the centering is much, much nicer than VF.)

Scott #C60 [1960 7c Carmine Airmail Stylized Jet Plane] USED Upper Right PLATE BLOCK 26445 with XF centering and light cancellation. The cancellation only faintly shows a date (which could read 1960), but it generally "looks right". While a Mint plate block is common, I cannot recall the last time I had a USED plate block of this issue! [The price just covers the cost of describing, scanning, and handling.]

Scott #C64 [1962 8c Plane over Capital Airmail, Booklet Stamps, Untagged]. NH VF Horizontal pair with "U.S. AIR MAIL" repeated at top. At first glance, this appears to be some sort of perforating error, but these are actually STAMPS FROM A MIS-CUT BOOKLET PANE. The booklets of these stamps were cut into individual booklets after the assembly of the several layers (covers, panes, interleaves) and thus mis-cuts are not uncommon. However, mis-cuts both this extreme and this "tidy" looking are fairly unusual. A fun way to dress up your Airmail collection.

Scott #C126 [1989 $1.80 UPU 20th Congress imperforate souvenir sheet containing four different 45 cent Futuristic Postal Transportation stamps] Used XF souvenir sheet with very neat hand cancellation. This is from "controlled mail". This item was used to pay the postage on a large package; in this case protected during mailing in a plastic pouch, and then returned to us by the recipient. This did provide postal service and is postally used. Such nice used examples are hard to find. The Scott 2025 Used value is $4.00, but it seems that most on the market have been soaked off FDCs and have not actually been used for postage (as this has been).

Scott #CE2 [1936 16c red and blue Airmail Special Delivery] Mint (one small LH at center of block) F-VF BOTTOM CENTER LINE / ARROW BLOCK OF FOUR. This is TYPE 4 with, in addition to the center red line and arrow, thick short red and blue lines; however, due to misregistration of the blue, the thick blue line is 3 mm to the right. Wonderfully fresh and attractive. While has a very modest catalog value, such nice looking examples are not often offered.
