Help! - Does anyone know who Quarternotes Ltd. are?

This is pretty cool
I've never received a Quarter Notes letter but I've seen them both here on CT and also random people finding them and posting them on Reddit.
It's pretty interesting

Looking forward to seeing what is in your envelopes!

 

Pennsylvania translates to Penn's Woods. A nickname for William is Bill. So William Penn's woods = Bill's Trees

 

I also received a letter in the mail today. I’ll open it up once I get a chance later this evening.

 

Man, This guy REALLY gets around.
Color me impressed.

 

I'm looking forward to this round of mystery as well.
Are all of the envelopes still return addressed to PR?

 

Nope still haven't won yetmy luck might be running out.

 

I did receive the same letter and counter stamped quarter already mentioned.

I wonder if this is in reference to Bill Cosby……

“Hey, you kids, get outta that Jello tree”

 

Yes, it is. Same as before.

Of the four letters I’ve received, two were postmarked from Jacksonville and two from Fort Meyers.

 

That is too funny! The QuarterMaster watches the contests! Mr. QuarterMaster, i was lucky enough to win one of the lots that you and @lordmarcovan so generously gave away. Just wanted to say Thank You. I should have posted sooner, my apologies. I was also the lucky random winner of a crisp 20 dollar bill, still unspent and in original fold pattern, in my lucky coin sack.

Again, thank you both for keeping this so fun.

 

Oops.
As far as my guess on the counterstamp,
Bill's Trees
We all know William Penn founded Pennsylvania, and he was a HUGE proponent of the usages of hemp, therefore, "Bill's Trees".
I figured it was pretty obvious.
Thank you, I'll take my prize in raw honey, please.

 

I have heard of QuarterNotes but have no clue (apparently no one esle does either) who they are. I guess if one is lucky enough to get on their list it would be a good thing (with the exception of driving ya crazy trying to figure out who he/she/it/they are!!)

I don’t know who they are. I did discover today that if I type quarter on my phone…. The first option that pops up is QuarterNotes!

 

I got another today. Its at my home address so I don't have it but by now I have at least four Maine state ones.

 

When I type in Quarter on my computer keyboard, the first 5 hits are just random quarter references. It isn't until I look at my history list that the first 4 hits are Quarternote references to CT pages.

 

What I find odd is that though this is ostensively a contest, you can only enter the contest if you receive, or have received, a letter from Quartermaster. That leaves a lot of us out of the game. Personally, I like solving riddles of this nature.
However, I've never wanted to be part of something where I'm not wanted.

 

This is all way too cool! I probably do not even understand it, and that is quite all right. Keep up the good work, whoever you are!

 

OK, got mine today and my brain flashed a message that Pennsylvania came into being with a land grant to William Penn, and being heavily forested, using the Latin name for the forest deity Sylvanus, they combined the terms and came up with Pennsylvania or Penn's Woods...in plain speak Bill's Trees!
