Mailing that @#$%^ 25c Eagle
Obviously, the only way to handle strips of 21 on this horror is to go
to a photo store and obtain film canisters. I do not know where to buy the sort of mailers used by the film companies for mailing in film for processing, but one can mail them in 4 x 6 3/4 clasp envelopes. The real problem comes with the strips of 11, which, according to Doug Iams, measure 11.3 inches from the end of the stamps, which means a bit more for the liner at the ends. I propose placing the strips in salvaged priority mail envelopes and then placing the protected stamps in a 9 1/2 x 12 1/2 catalog envelope (which I still have left over from the days when I published the PNC Catalog). They came 250 in a box, and I do not know whether smaller quantities are available. The catalog envelope has to be folded and sealed at all open edges with tape, a real pain in the neck. But my Size 12 envelopes are not long enough to accommodate the strips. -- Stephen G. Esrati PO Box 20130 Shaker Heights, OH 44120 (216) 561-9393 |

I have a simpler solution, Stephan. Give up the foolishness and collect
genuine postally used examples. .. Let the killers of the goose enjoy their memories of the last "Golden Egg". .. Postally Cancelled stamps Rule !!! .. Charlie Jense Live right, Eat right, Exercise ... ... ... Die anyway ! |
