There are a couple of articles that caught my attention. The first is The Robert A. Siegel Auction of the Peter Sharrer Collection of United States Classic Postal Markings on October 5, 2016. I'll try to find a copy of this catalog for my library, looks like there are many postal markings on covers I know I'll never own. The next is The Belfast, New York Japanese Fan. RFD Carrier Christmas Cards looks interesting but I didn't get a chance to read that yet. I plan to add Herst's new book to the library, I have all his other books and they are a fun read.
Randy, you might want to check out The 1928 Five Cent Beacon Airmail Stamp.
I received the latest edition of "Kelleher's Collectors Connection". I'll start a new thread on that after I get a chance to read it. Plenty of reading to catch up on.
