Special Information about the above categories:

Category 6
Plate Number Covers. Most often these are coil stamps, although there have been a few plate # singles from booklet panes. Such issues will be included. Our plate # coil covers are usually strips of three, with the number in the middle.

Category 7
Combo Covers. A Colorano tradition for more than 20 years. Appropriate older issues are added to the new issue prior to first day cancelling. They truly add a new dimension to your collection.

Category 8
Dual Cancel Covers. Two cancels on one cover. Sometimes a show pictorial and the regular first day cancel. At other times a US and foreign cancel when appropriate.

Category 14
Space Shuttle Flights. Usually a set of 8 to 10 covers for each mission, comprising a Launch and Return cover from Kennedy Space Center (or Edwards AFB if used), Launch covers from Johnson Space Center and Cape Canaveral, and a series of Event covers marking the flight events (usually four to six events). Current cost is $3.50/cover (less your subscriber discount).

Category 19
Space Medallic Covers. The official bronze flight medal is incorporated into a special die-cut envelope and cancelled on Launch at Kennedy Space Center. $13.00 each (less your subscriber discount).
