I dabble in this stamp issue as well. My collection currently consists of 40 domestic mail examples and 44 international. Always looking for the unusual with this stamp.

I thought this was unusual enough to pick up at a flea market. It's a 3" audio tape roll. Not in the best condition, but it was cheap. Probably not the easiest thing to mount on an album page though.

spain1850 Richard: I used to live in a town next door to Seal Beach. There is (was?) a Naval weapons facility in Seal Beach. Seeing that the tape was posted from Hawaii, it caused me to wonder if perhaps this was from one military person to another? (Not that it's particularly relevant to the collection.) Mostly just thinking out loud ...

spain1850 and daveg28 - yes 3-dimensional items can be a challenge. In my previous office I had a cabinet to display such items including boxes, tubes and construction product samples.

I recently added this treaty rate printed matter wrapper to Canada, and it makes a nice pair with the unsealed printed matter envelope to Mexico.
