Claude

This cover features a pictorial cancellation/cachet in dark blue ink depicting the World Columbian Stamp Expo '92 logo, which includes a profile portrait (likely Columbus) on the left and a globe grid design on the right. The cancellation reads 'WORLD COLUMBIAN STAMP EXPO '92' at top and 'WITH INDIA 24·5·92' at bottom. No adhesive stamp is affixed to this cover; it appears to be a souvenir cover with only the special event cancellation applied.

Mistral

This souvenir cover features a dark blue pictorial cancellation with a portrait of Christopher Columbus and a globe grid design. The cancellation text reads 'WORLD COLUMBIAN STAMP EXPO '92 WITH INDIA 24.5.92.' There is no adhesive stamp affixed, and the cover is in clean condition with no visible cachet artwork beyond the cancellation. The postmark is centered on the envelope.

(The automatic summaries sometimes misidentify the postmark as part of the cachet artwork.)
