American Intervention in Siberia, 1918-1920. Selection of 12 covers, all except two with ´U.S. Postal Agency/Siberia-1´´ duplex, with one showing the scarce large rubber handstamp. The lot includes early (November 1918) and late (1920) usages, two different YMCA envelopes and ´´War Department/Official Business´´ corner card type OC-1, four different censor´s cachets. It deserves to be mentioned that one cover with unusual censorship type C-8 shows an exceptional case of postage due application on arrival which was later crossed out. Also YMCA envelope censored by a member of the AEF in Siberia and later placed on the Japanese mails with 10s. adhesive tied at Otasu. An interesting group of material which is rarely offered on the market.
