Here's an item I got in a pile of covers at my club auction a week or so back. Turns out a lot of them were water damaged, so many were thrown out, or had the stamps trimmed off. But I salvaged a few. This 1955 French cover has a paquebot roller cancel, and an airmail rubber stamp over top of it. I don't know the destination because the address has come clean off in the wet. Must have been quite the flood.

Try uploading a high resolution scan to retroReveal and you might be able to decipher the address.

I cant tell if the do Paquebot cancels anymore. I tried to send one from a cruise a few years back and it came back to me with normal cancellation. Kind of disappointing, but a very cool cover James.
