The Korean Liberator Cover - 20 May 1946 (Part 2)


Greetings! After a long absence I am back. Today's post features a cover marking the first trip of the Korean Liberator that occurred on 20 May 1946. I acquired my first Korean Liberator cover this past spring and I have since fallen in love with them and have been seeking them out for my collection. The one depicted is the second one I have acquired. In my opinion these are great to collect. So far all I have seen were mailed by U.S. Army personnel and naturally all of the covers have the 1946 commemorative stamps marking the liberation from Japanese rule. I haven't quite figured out why, but I am particularly fond of this stamp issue as well!

If you have any of these covers or stamps in your collection and are willing to part with them please send me an email.

I hope everyone has a great week!
