If you had asked me not so long a go, which was my best cover, I would have hemmed and hawed. Now I know for certain. Drum roll please . . .

Thankfully the Canadian post office believed in dated transit/receiving cancels.

They who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety. -Benjamin Franklin

Sorry smauggie, it is not addressed to Richmond BC, but rather to Richmond, Canada East, which is now Quebec, in the area known as the "Eastern Townships". South of the St. Lawrence and due east of Montreal - about 30-40 miles due east.

Here is a Google Map.

Nothing to be sorry about at all Roy. Thanks for clearing that up, it makes more sense now.
