One of my recent acquisitions is this 1937
souvenir cover from the N.W.T. Celebration Commission, which was carried by ox cart caravan, reproducing the trek of
the pioneers to the Northwest Territory in 1787. It was postmarked at Ipswich,
Massachusetts on December 8, 1937, and at Marietta, Ohio, on April 7, 1839.
