COLLARED INCA Male Coeligena torquata (a hummingbird) . This beautiful Collared Inca male is perching on a twig near the town of Papallacta high on the east side of the Andes in northern Ecuador on June 26, 2014.

 

The geographical distribution of the Collared Inca includes Perú, Ecuador, Colombia, and Venezuela.

 

The Collared Inca is extraordinarily graceful and elegant and is one of my favorite hummingbirds.

SINCLAIR MILLS is a community located on the north bank of the Fraser River between McGregor and Longworth in central British Columbia. The town site of Sinclair Mills was named after F. N. Sinclair, a railroad construction engineer. The town site was noted for the quality of its worker housing facilities, saw mills and the fact that it was a rail way station. Per January 2010 there are only 19 Families living in actual Sinclair Mills. It is a quiet, rural community in the scenic Upper Fraser Valley, with a fantastic backdrop of the western foothills of the Rockies and also the Cariboo Mountains. The majority of the current inhabitants are either in farming, trapping, hunting and outfitting, or they are retired. Those who do work in other sectors, usually commute to work in the city of Prince George (app. 100 km) or its surrounding areas. All the surrounding small sawmills closed down in 1966 when the big companies bought up all the timber rights. Sinclair Mills is conveniently close to a bigger city and the international Prince George airport, but also remote enough to keep those happy who cherish old-fashioned, quiet, safe, neighbourly Canadian country life.

 

The SINCLAIR MILLS Post Office was established - 15 May 1926 and closed - 3 September 1970 - it re-opened - 1 August 1979.

Addressed to: Campana Corporation Ltd / 2 Caledonia Road, / Toronto, Ontario

 

CAMPANA CORPORATION LIMITED is a federal corporation entity registered with Corporations Canada. The incorporation date is January 14, 1927. Its first product was Italian Balm, a hand lotion. The formula was purchased from a Dr. Campana, from where the company derives its name. It also produced facial and pore cleaners.

 

Some time prior to the year 1885 a druggist in Toronto, Canada, began to manufacture and sell a hand lotion which he called Campana's Italian Balm. Some sales were made in the United States. The lotion continued to be sold under that name by him and his successors in a comparatively small way until 1926, when the plaintiff acquired the formula and all rights to the trade-mark, trade-name, or goodwill, and began to manufacture the product at Batavia, Ill.

sent from - / SINCLAIR MILLS, / JUN 20 / 33 / B.C. / - MOOD cancel in purple ink - (RF C).

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MOOD - It is a device which are known as "MOOD" (Money Order Office Datestamp / Device), which were first issued In Canada in 1927 and distinct looking round rubber CDS cancels of about 24 mm diameter (sometimes with ornaments). The definition of these cancels has come to include all circular rubber hammers under about 30 mm diameter that were issued before 1973.

 

MOOD cancels are usually seen in various colours, not often in black. MOODs were used concurrently during the period 1928 - 1945, with the majority seen in the 1930's. Almost all MOOD's have a comma after the town name, and this helps to differentiate them from other postmark styles. These devices were issued to post offices in order to date stamp money order and registration receipts as well as official mail. They were occasionally used for postmarking regular mail, but this use was not officially authorized.

Addressed to: William Hesslein / 101A Tremont Street / Boston / Mass. / USA

 

WILLIAM G. HESSLEIN (1866-1932) - One of six children born of a Jewish family in New York. His father was Samuel A. Hesslein (1831-1904) and his mother Rosalie Hesslein. His father was born in Germany and moved to America in 1857. His father was a partner in Neuss, Hesslein & Co., formed between 1861 and 1863. His older brother Edgar Joseph Hesslein took over his father's share of the business after his father death. The family dry goods business was huge and imported and exported goods throughout the United States, South America and the Middle and Far East. He is purported to have been a veteran of the Union Army. He married Clara M. Hesslein in 1891. A decree of absolute divorced was granted by Judge Giegerich to Clara M. Hesslein from William Hesslein in March 1894. Soon after his divorce he began to sell coins. In his coin prices catalogs he prints "Established 1895." He joined the ANA in 1899 and is member no. 158, with his mailing address above the Drug Store formerly owned by William Elliot Woodward (1825-1892) at 101 Tremont Street in the Paddock Building, Boston. Apparently, he became a numismatic dealer and cataloger by 1895 and so it appears bought the remaining W. E. Woodward coin and numismatic stock off his son Harlow. He frequently corresponded with the Chapman Brothers beginning with his business at New Haven, Connecticut in 1902. He became a traveling salesman who sold druggist sundries. He carried coins in a grip-sack from city to city in the eastern United States. He typically wrapped brilliant uncirculated coins in toilet paper as an absorbent to prevent discoloration by oxidation. He consigned coins for Thomas Elder's first auction sale in 1905. His most notable sale was of the late Ralph Barker, about 1906. In addition to the Boston office he had a business office in the Malley Building, New Haven, Connecticut, at least from the beginning of 1902 to June 1913. On May 20, 1913 he won an 1873 $3 Gold piece for $76.00 at the auction held by the United States Coin Company, New York. After June 1913 his main office was above the William Elliot Woodward Drug Store at 101 Tremont Street in the Paddock Building, Boston. From July 1913 to December 1931 he ran weekly advertisements in the Boston Herald. He claimed to have conducted well over 140 auctions to 1931, which were numbered up to 144. If correct then he held 4 auctions per year on average during the 36 years he was in the coin business. During his final 7 years of business he held nearly 6 auctions per year. However, Adams rightly holds that 70 auctions purportedly conducted between 1916 and 1923 are pure fabrications in the numbering system to look more impressive to his market audience. He issued 30 fixed price lists. His last sale was held on December 4-5, 1931 with coins consigned from Charles L. Stuart, G. Arthur Cook et alia. He quietly died shortly after his final coin auction sale. Some believe he did not die at that time but quietly slipped out of sight as a petty crook. Adams has written: "history is cruel to the petty crook. If one robs or extorts on only a modest scale, there are no Boswells and there are no film rights. Such was the fate of William Hesslein; by absconding with but small money, he left no biography behind him . . ."

West Behemoth was designed by Dave West for Photo-Lettering in 1960. PLINC’s One Line catalog from 1971 shows West Behemoth (Clarendon) with Italic and Italic Swash styles (this image), Semicondensed and Condensed, Shaded (outlined letter with solid shadow), Comstock (solid letter and shadow with white contour), and a decorated Starred variant.

 

While the non-swash Behemoth Clarendon Italic 11 (5270) was shown already in Alphabet Thesaurus Vol. 2 from 1965, the swash variant appeared only in Vol. 3 (1971), as Behemoth Clarendon Italic Swash (5546). It had been used already in 1967 and is distinguished by swash forms for the capitals and several lowercase letters including d g h k l n r t v y. Unlike the swashless variant, it has no entry strokes and less pronounced exit strokes on a i m etc.

 

West Behemoth was revived by Martin Wenzel for the digital PLINC reincarnation. This version includes the italic, but unfortunately not the more popular swash italic. Among digital fonts, Tutti Paffuti NF is probably the closest option. Nick Curtis based his interpretation on Stymie Black Italic, which seems to be an anonymous knockoff of West’s design that appeared in catalogs by Typeshop (1973) and Lettergraphics (1976).

Saint-Michel d'Aiguilhe (St. Michael of the Needle) is a chapel in Aiguilhe, near Le Puy-en-Velay, France. It was built in 969 on a volcanic plug 85 metres (279 ft) high. The chapel is reached by 268 steps carved into the rock. It was built to celebrate the return from the pilgrimage of Saint James.

 

In 1429, the mother of Joan of Arc, Isabelle Romée, was said to have come to the site to pray.
