Two Harbors, Minnesota “Carried by Dogsled” racing covers
On January 31st 2016, the organizers of the annual Beargrease Sled Dog Race arranged for a pictorial postmark featuring an image of a sled dog and an annotation that the the cover had been "Carried by Dogsled".
The cover by Joshua McGee imagines the bulletin board of a dogsled racing fanatic. The cachet shows four photographic prints of dogsled races pinned to the board, and a page from a dogsled-themed calendar with the date of the race circled and "RACE DAY!" written in red.
