Canada - Pre Adhesives / Stampless Covers

1822, Drummond Island, folded favour letter dated 7 March 1822 from W.Simpson (Hudson Bay Factor) referring to an account of postage for £1.6.2 to W.Hands at Sandwich. Drummond Island, at the narrows of Lake Huron, contained since the British-American War of 1812 a British Military Settlement, although it was an enclave in U.S. territory. Only favour mail exists, and is very rare. In 1828 the island was ceded to the USA. Ex Charles P. de Volpi.
