Description: This cover promotes Planet Jr. Farm & Garden Implements and is sent from East Williston, N.Y., addressed to John Deere Plow Co. in Syracuse, N.Y. The vibrant illustration on the front features a farmer operating a Planet Jr. cultivator, emphasizing the company's focus on agricultural tools. The reverse side depicts a colorful and detailed image of farmers using various Planet Jr. implements in the fields, advertising wheel hoes, cultivators, and more. The Planet Jr. brand, founded by S. L. Allen in Philadelphia in the late 1800s, became renowned for its durable and innovative gardening and farming tools. F. L. Oakley was likely a local distributor or retailer in East Williston, representing the brand in New York. The cover features a 2-cent red George Washington stamp (Scott #554) and a 2-cent red Postage Due stamp (Scott #J60), indicating the letter was underpaid and required additional postage upon delivery. Both stamps are tied by clear cancels, one from East Williston, N.Y., dated March 19, and another from Syracuse, N.Y., upon receipt. Notably, the East Williston cancel is from a Discontinued Post Office (DPO), adding further significance to the cover.
