Glowing review of my new book from Eldon Mohler

Hi Doug,

I received your Dorothy Knapp book this afternoon. I am absolutely thrilled by it. It’s gorgeous! It is the most stunning cover book I have ever seen. I have spent over an hour skimming through every single page. I really appreciate the human interest information included about Dorothy and her family (and dog). I read the poems and some of the other text, and scanned through all of the cover photos. Everything is top notch. I recognize a number of the covers as being in my collection. I am now excited about going through my Knapp covers and identifying them with your numbering system. I’m thinking that your numbering will end of being the “Bible” for Knapp covers.

Thank you for sending me this superb book. I will certainly treasure it. I will be spending a lot more time carefully reading all the introductory material and, of course, the cover photos. My wife saw your book, and she wants to read about Dorothy and family, and she usually has practically no interest in covers.

I knew you had been a pharmacist, but I did not know you were a professional pastry chef and that you restored fine 18th century furniture. I’m glad to learn that.

I eagerly await your second book!

Cordially,

Eldon

About

Weisz Stamps & Covers is one of the largest full time professional specialists in this area of philately. “Covers” are most simply an envelope that has been through the mail. They have been called covers since before there were envelopes because they “covered” the letter inside with a folded piece of paper sealed by wax. There are hundreds of specialties and areas of this collecting area. Some covers were expressly created for collectors and these are called “philatelic covers”. The others are our daily mail dating back to the 1700s and this is “commercial mail” or “postal history”. Since mail touches all our lives and in different ways there are more reasons and ways to collect postal history than anyone could imagine. Collect your favorite country, mail from the town or county that you grew up in or mail that relates to a famous idol. Collect topical interests like sports, animals, architecture, advertising or food. There are hundreds of fascinating covers that tell your story.

We service thousands of customers through the 20 to 25 stamp shows we travel to every year. We’re also happy to fill your want list via email or snail mail, and send scans and approvals to many of our clients. Since 1960 our family has been trusted members of the philatelic community. We are dealers in good standing with both the American Philatelic Society (APS) and the American Stamp Dealers Association (ASDA). We have spent millions of dollars and are always looking for more material to keep our inventory fresh. Please call before sending any material on approval.
