Canada Stamp #386 - Queen Elizabeth II (1959) 5¢
SKU: CAN-0386
Special Event Cover (Private) - ABC Boy Scouts
(FDC-ABC)
A beautiful embossed cover that salutes Queen Elizabeth II giving birth to her son Andrew on February 19, 1960. The letters "ABC" are embossed on the cover and in the blue card inside, which stands for America - Britain - Canada (ABC) boy scouts.
Apparently, it was some sort of special event in which anyone who mailed this letter was given an honorary membership to the ABC. A beautiful nostalgic philatelic item that reminds us that these kinds of promotional events had to be organized by mail (with some stamps) before the age of the internet!
