United States of America - Louisiana

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 Louisiana, lying in the south central region of the United States. It was the 18th state, admitted in 1812.

The stamps were affixed by me and come from the Flags of our nation and Greetings series and the stamp commemorating the 200th anniversary of statehood. I sent the envelope to the post office in the capital Baton Rouge to be postmarked. It arrived back in eighteen days with a nice datestamp, but unfortunately also with a machine postmark.

Date sent: 26 May 2017
Date postmark: 6 June 2017
Date received: 13 June 2017
Number of days: 18
Envelope in collection: 168
