These are three covers I recently bought among a batch of 25:

When I was sorting them out for inclusion into my albums, I first noticed I had three different but similar Swanson VAFB rubber stamp cachets in blue. Then I noticed their dates! 4 December 1967; 4 December 1968; and 4 December 1969.

For some strange reason I feel really pleased they arrived together, and have made my day!!! (They are in order of date, OV3-6, KH8-18, and KH4B-1108.)

All times are CT (US)
