Postal History in the Edmond Sun

Oklahoma stampHere is a nice story about one Joe Crosby, a postal history collector in Edmond, Oklahoma. In this particular article, the author, James Coburn, takes us through Mr. Crosby’s research of a particular cover that was sent by a former UCO football coach. Coburn does an admirable job of joining the worlds of history and philately with football to make for an interesting story that can appeal to a wide variety of people. The only problem I have with the article is that the author never tells us exactly what UCO is. For Edmond locals, I suppose this is not a problem, but I haven’t got a clue as to what college or University this refers to. Perhaps someone out there can elighten me. You can have a look at the article here.
