Title: Ephemera of the Day 9 June
Post by: Michael Dobbs on June 09, 2020, 12:35:20 AM
I tried to do this under 8 June but was diverted with other tasks and now its gone midnight!

I've been trying to find the time to mount up some covers, which is slow progress.  I came acorss these bag labels in a folder which I must have had for at least a year - they are next on my "to do" list as they form part of my Home Depot collection which I am currently working on.  They are all connected with the Falklands.  I have plenty of other bag labels as well - some from/to BAOR and other places.

Very Nice Mike

Only one's I've seen and could offer all WWI 1917/1918 into Mudros.

Interesting use of the plural for Ascension. I always thought it was one on its own.

Also, wonder what was deleted on the third one

I am almost certain that it was ASCENSION - having looked through a magnifying glass and a strong light close up and looking at it both through the front and back of the label!

Yes, I also think it strange that Ascension is called Islands rather than singlular.
