Beck Event and Naval Covers 1943-1944  Page 1 of 3

Theodore Roosevelt, October 27, 1943 cover shown below is the earliest Morris W. Beck Cover in this collection.  It is considered to be his first event cover, but that is not certain.  If you have information regarding an earlier event cover produced by Morris W. Beck please contact Owen Murray.

Another example of Beck's first cover


USS PC 823-Reverse Marking 604 Ninth Street


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.
