A Visit To The National Postal Museum
(Published: September, 2016, Volume 16, Number 3, Issue #42) (Table Of Contents)(Author: Larry Fillion)
This will be part one of the article. I went to the National Postal Museum
over the summer and got to spend a few a few hours looking through the Postmaster General's items which were added a few years ago.
Below are all of the progressive die proofs which were available to look at. They were all housed in a book and there were other
issues in the book. As I looked through and I took pictures (I will go back at some point and get scans), I saw other issues in the
book but some of the other issues only had two or three of these proofs. [Also in the collection was a set of 20-30 essays for the
issue. I took pictures of them (once again, I'll get scans so the dimensions are know and the images are not distorted) and they will
be in the next Miasma].
Progressive Proof 1
Progressive Proof 2
Progressive Proof 3
Progressive Proof 4
Progressive Proof 5
Progressive Proof 6
Progressive Proof 7
Progressive Proof 8
All of the progressive die proofs had markings on the back of the proofs and when I go back to get scans, I will get high resolution scans of all of the backs also.
