Type of CoverFirst Day Cover (gummed)
DescriptionAs with the Parade covers for this release, there was a catchet for each of the stamps, but it's common to find all or most stamps on each cover. This one is intended for the 5c blue booklet stamp. Note that this does not have the "Parade Covers" or soldier printed. It was common for cover to not have the text/logo, but I've not seen the other variations of this issue to not have them.

General Notes
  • This is a McCallum cover produced under the Parade brand. Parade covers were made for issues from 1967 through May 1971. Only some of the covers carried a Parade Covers logo, most are unbranded but can be identified by the text styling.
