Cachet Display Catalog: FDC Cachetmakers Index
This page displays First Day Cover (FDC) cachets mostly created by Unknown, with different Eagle designs. Most of them are General Purpose cachets not made for any specific issue. However, some of these Eagles were also used as design element parts of issue specific cachets by multiple Cachetmakers who got them from some unknown source like "HUX" or another similar design database that I don't know about. Please write if you can identify the Cachetmaker marked "Unknown", or if you know the original source of one or more of these Eagle designs.
