Not every interesting piece of postal history is expensive. This card, dated March 31, 1946, appears at first glance to be a typical stationery card, with an unremarkable Baltimore machine cancel, addressed to Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Only a look at the reverse depicts a rather lovely little pen drawing depicting the sender’s upcoming British Overseas Airways flight to Bermuda, where he intends to stay to recuperate from some undisclosed ailment.
Baltimore to Bermuda
I have a soft spot for such whimsical examples of artistry, and have a few examples on Canadian cigarette cards from WWII in my own collection.
If I collected Bermuda, I’d keep this one too. As it is, should it not sell, I won’t be disappointed to hang on to it a while longer.
