(he was the editor of the newspaper there), cover with edge flaws, sealed tear at R, bits of flap missing, still a very scarce rodeo cover from the Depression, type has a marked Art-Deco style, the sender may have believed he was overpaying the air rate but this was from the odd period when the second ounce was a higher price (10c) than the first ounce (5c), so the total is 15c, 8c Due paid by two pairs of the 2c Postage Due issue (cnl Northfield Minn), one pair SE, despite the flaws this cover is a very exhibitable piece of California history, Rodeo history and Postal Rate documentation, Fine-VF
