Introduction to the series "Object Blog"

H-Postal History welcomes studies of individual objects. Object blogs should be between 300-500 words and include at least one original image (nothing taken from the web, please) in RGB.

Please provide a caption and credit line for each image.

Please discuss

1) the object itself;

2) how/why and where you first came across it; and

3) what types of questions it raises and answers as a primary source.

To submit an object blog for consideration, please write to editorial-postal-history@mail.h-net.msu.edu.
