Thank You my dear friend, Nasia for another beautiful cover from Cyprus. The pair of stamps depicts a stylized peace dove. Thanks for sending me a registered cover and love the pigeon postmarks you included for me.
Besides the registered sticker, even the postmark used on the cover states "registered". This is rather unique as not many countries actually practice that. Normally, they either use a sticker or cancellation. Besides that, I really appreciate that you have used the correct postage rate. Just can't thank you enough, my dear friend.
Hope you like the cover I've send you and looking forward to more friendly exchanges with you.
This is yet another very interesting bird cover I got from Nasia last year. As ive mentioned a number of times, a quality cover will have the following:
1) Clear postmark (at least one of the postmark in the middle)
2) Correct Postage Rate at that particular time
3) A complete set of stamp will be a bonus (additional stamps are preferably put at the back to avoid mis match themes)
4) Registered covers are always a favourite among cover collectors.
One interesting thing on this cover is the 'India Registered Label'. What happen? Was it a mistake by the Postal Staff? I doubt it took a detour to India as there aren't any signs that shows that. Normally, there will be a hand stamped "Mis-sent" and signatured by the postal authority. Hopefully, my readers can help me out here.
Anyway, thanks alot my dear friend, nasia and hopefully we can have many more exchanges in the near future. Sorry Ive not kept in contact but promise to get really active now. Hopefully you too can help me with Cyprus Eagle Philatelic Materials. HAHAHA
