I love these covers. They are a real historical window into the opening up of Canada with aviation in the late 20's and 30's. I have bought and sold literally thousands of these covers over the last 25 years.
A great thing is that they are also well documented in the American Airmail Society "The Air Mails of Canada and Newfoundland" .
It just occurred to me that a map of the route for each cover would be a great addition to a post, for a real understanding of the barrenness pf this part of Canada and the dangers of these flights. There are some great books about the early bush pilots of Canada.
