A high signal to noise ratio IUE spectrum of WR 136 was reanalyzed, and components in another 9 Cyg OB1 stars were sought. For WR 136, the velocity of the components is in excellent agreement with emission line measurements of NGC 6888. Similar high velocity components are found in 6 out of 9 stars, and it is concluded that they probably originate in an expanding supershell. The excellent agreement between the emission and absorption line velocities for WR 136, however, suggests that these high velocity components have contributions from both NGC 6888 and the proposed supershell.
