Ok everyone, this one is killing me. It is a stamped envelope of a Dark Montreal Fishing Fly with and ORAPEX 50th edition cancellation. I cannot find a Scott number for this envelope and I have been searching all night. Aside from does someone know the Scott number for this (if there is one) does anyone know where I might find these listed on the web. Stamped envelopes being BOB are not always easy marks, but I sure could use some help here. Thanks as always''

randyharper Jeff, The design is one that was used in the 1998 fishing flies issue (Scott 1717). If I'm reading the Unitrade correctly, the Dark Montreal design on a size 8 envelope is Scott U222; the Dark Montreal on a size 10 is U232.

Thanks to both of you. And it was on a Size 8 envelope. U222. You guys are the best. I will remove the link. And thanks Irishjack for the conversion. This is the first time I have had trouble getting the link from photobucket to take.

I just picked up my mail and 1998 flies was used for postage. I just sold a mint sheet on the weekend. 6 long months before I will be able to fish. But there's always ice fishing
