United States of America - Oregon

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 Oregon, lying in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. It was the 33rd state, admitted in 1859.

The stamps were affixed by me and come from the Flags of our nations and Greetings series and the stamp commemorating the 150th anniversary of statehood. I sent the envelope to the post office in the capital Salem to be postmarked. It arrived back in a bit more than a month.

Date sent: 4 May 2017
Date postmark: 24 May 2017
Date received: 8 June 2017
Number of days: 35
Envelope in collection: 151
