1Despite the text on Antigua and Barbuda 1313j, Mariner-1 failed upon launch and therefore never made it to Venus. Rather, Mariner-2 was the first in the series to reach Venus.
2"Airpex'74" on this pictorial cancel appears to be a typo for "Aripex'74"!
3See here for a list of engraved/lithographed Russian definitive pairs known to exist with satellite overprints.
5"Mariner 77" may be an early reference to "Mariner Mark II"
6The Tartari Republic overprints of Malagasy (DR) 931 span blocks of 6 Russian definitives instead of the blocks of 4 that divide the strips into 5 overprinted stamps. See an example of how the stamps are divided differently in terms of overprints (in red) vs. divided for use as stamps (in green). Since our emphasis is on the Mariner satellite, in the table above we present the strips divided in terms of overprints.


Below is a list of Mariner-series spacecraft launch covers (including anniversary-of-launch covers, and launch-related event covers).
