United States of America - New Jersey

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 New Jersey, lying in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States. It was the 3rd state, admitted in 1787.

The stamps were affixed by me and come from the Flags of our nation, State birds and Greetings series and the stamp commemorating the 200th anniversary of statehood. I sent the envelope to the post office in the capital Trenton to be postmarked. It arrived back in just under three weeks with perfect datestamps, but also with small stripes at the top of the envelope.

Date sent: 26 May 2017
Date postmark: 7 June 2017
Date received: 13 June 2017
Number of days: 18
Envelope in collection: 160
