HR-47) envelope - California Hotel 16.Rue De Berri Champs-Elysees Paris - penciled on corner is "wheat". At first we thought this indicated color. Our guess now is that the pieces labeled as "wheat" were in fact collected by Dr. Rodeck's colleague Joe Benn Wheat. (see link to left) - tan tracing paper quality (- 1 piece tan folded with the pin config. similar to others. I note 7 pinholes across and wonder if I scanned the others too quickly - 11.8 x 19.8
HR-48) envelope - Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky Amsterdam - C.- penciled in corner is "wheat" indicating color"? though this has more of a creamy tan than #47 - crepe - 2 pieces connected serrated - each 10.4 x 13.7
HR-49) envelope - Hotel du Centre Les Elyzies Guy Garrigue Gerant Libre- again "wheat" penciled in corner - this time paper is more of a light brown. Either his attempt to classify a color is weak, or the word "wheat" is meant to codify this particular trip. - 2 pieces folded in half - 5 pinhole config near center fold - each 10.8 x 17.6

HR-56, HR-57, HR-58) in an envelope mailed from Australia to Dr. Rodeck in Colrado Aug 20, 1963 - There is no return address and no letter enclosed. did the collector mail to himself? Is this the original content of envelope? One would think so considering it is preserved within the shoebox. The envelope is printed Lounge Car Commonwealth Railways-
first (#HR-56) pink "tahiti" - 'tracing' paper - 2 sheets single ply or 1 sheet double ply? - fine serration on either end 12.4 x 19.5 - further note there is an imprint from something having been written on top of it. Haven't figured out how to decipher yet. I recall a James Bond episode where he's able to read a signature on a check from the imprint.
2nd (#HR-57) "New Zealand" light cream - 1 sheet double (2 sheets single?) fine serrated - 11 x 12
3rd (#HR-58) "Australia - light tan - 'tracing paper' - larger serrations - 4 sheets attached - each 10.6 x 13
HR-59) no envelope - but has piece from original outer wrapper - "North Queensland Australia" - this piece has a wonderful architectural look to it - It looks like there may have been an attempt to give it a fine serration, but if so, it must have failed since either end is torn. 10 x 62
