U.S.S. Argonaut



Being the ex navy man that I am and also an ex submarine builder I really like this cover.





I find the year cancel a bit odd being out of the circle.

Obviously stamp collecting was much more popular back in the thirties.

I wonder how many cachet covers the fleet puts out now?

Maybe I shouldn't have thought of that.





It's hard to imagine that we built the largest submarine to lay mines.
Todays largest submarine is made to lay waste to the world.
Who's worried about global warming?
