This photographic cancel commemorating the Battle of Yorktown was mailed to Leon E. Pepperberg on October 19 1931.
The cancel is Yorktown VA, Oct 19 1931.
The Crosby-Beazell cachet covers were unique because of the high quality of the ship photo on the cover. This was achieved by using photographic paper to make the envelope. Beazell was a photographer and Crosby collaborated with him to develop the ship photos onto the paper, which afterwards they converted into an envelope. Then Crosby arranged for the envelope to be cancelled aboard the corresponding ship.
