United States of America - Minnesota

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 Minnesota, lying in the Upper Midwest and Northern regions of the United States. It was the 32nd state, admitted in 1858.

The stamps were affixed by me and come from the Flags of our nations and Greetings series and a stamp commemorating the 150th anniversary of statehood. I sent the envelope to the post office in the capital Saint Paul to be postmarked. The envelope arrived back with three nice postmarks from USPS Main Office Windows St. Paul. At the top of the envelope unfortunately there is again a machine cancellation.
