A nifty Pforzheim cancel, commemorating a millenium of Aschaffenburg, home to a wonderful palace. Curious place; very old and very arbitrary. The name goes back to 957--as commemorated here--but references go back to the Roman Empire. Technically in Bavaria, but so far north it might as well be Hessian. The stamp is a catalogued plate oddity with a broken letter N in the city seal.

August 25As the cachet suggests, this is a First Day cover for the 6 cent, carmine, perf. 10 horizontally, rotary press coil air mail stamp issued in Washington, DC on this date in 1949 (Scott C41). The stamp's design, showing a DC-4 Skymaster, is the type used on the 5 cent air mail stamp issued March 26, 1947 (Scott C33).

August 26, 1893
Yay, it's my birthday and look at the gem I have in my collection! Checking Unitrade, it is number 30, a 15¢ grey Large Queen perf 12, issued in 1873, with a mighty fine cancel from Vancouver, BC. It's a rather late usage of this stamp, but it certainly appears to be 1893.

Two of 'em. 26 August must be an important anniversary of something. Pete's birthday? A nicely centered old Gysinge, and Swedish duck stamp (well, it is a duck):
