To
solidify the ideals of WWII's allied nations into a
functioning world entity for peace, a United Nations
Conference on International Organization (UNCIO) was held in
San Francisco, Ca. during April and June of 1945. Special
first class and airmail envelopes were provided to attending
representatives. This specially prepared stationery carried
the official correspondence of the new organization and this
webpage attempts to inventory these covers. A total of 33
covers with a service corner card are presented and indicate
the rarity of such in the overall scheme of postal history
when compared to the postal history of other countries and
organizations. Additionally, two conference committee and
two personal delegate mail examples are also recorded
here.
