United States of America - Nevada

In my World envelope collection I do not just want to have envelopes from stamp-issuing countries and territories, but also from other regions. This includes the 50 states of the United States of America. This envelope comes from the state of Nevada, lying in the western region of the United States. It was the 36th state, admitted in 1864.

The stamps were affixed by me and come from the Flags of our nation and Greetings series and the stamp commemorating the 150th anniversary of statehood. I sent the envelope to the post office in the capital Carson City to be postmarked. It arrived back in eighteen days with a nice, although a bit difficult to read datestamp, but again there was a large machine postmark on the envelope form the city of Reno.

Date sent: 24 May 2017
Date postmark: 9 June 2017
Date received: 17 June 2017
Number of days: 24
Envelope in collection: 172
