A good example of Beck's very early Naval Covers
2008 was the first time we saw this 1943 Morris W Beck
cover he produced while in high school. There is a red rubber stamp on the reverse of the cover with Beck's usual
marking. "Morris W. Beck"
We asked Mr. Beck about his early covers and he has no written record of the
early covers and can't specifically remember which ones he published. Mr.
Beck passed away in 2011.
Another example of this cover, postmarked
at a different
city. Argonne, Wisconsin.

USS PC 823-Reverse Marking 604 Ninth Street
January 29, 1944
January 29, 1944-Hand Cancel
Reverse Marking 604 Ninth Street
This Ticonderoga Launching cover is likely to be a one-of-a-kind cover.
It is believed that this hand-made cover was created by Morris W. Beck.
The picture is cut from another source and affixed to the cover. The
text is hand printed. The writing style is very consistent with Beck's
other samples found on this site. If you are aware of any other Beck
hand-made covers please contact Owen Murray.
