WANTED - IMAGES of POST-1912 POSTAL MARKINGS USED @ BOTHWELL

Work has re-commenced on the Index of Tasmanian Post Offices and Postal Markings
at http://tps.org.au/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page.

I wish to create a listing of one of the larger regional post offices which has a long
period of operation and BOTHWELL is my choice.

If you have any 300dpi (or larger) images of postal marking from any era used at Bothwell
and can assist, please post them in this topic as attachments. The strikes need to be
'tip top' as it is better to leave a space than to have hard-to-read and/or partial impressions
detracting from the "text book" presentation quality that this project requires.

Your assistance can be acknowledged if required.

thanks Daryl ... looks very useful but would it be possible to have an image without the stockcard strip visible the picture?

No worries Mr Fussy,I didn't notice it until you pointed it out then it became very distracting.The new one posted should be more to your liking.I am doing a few pages at the moment and it seems to be going ok,just have to struggle with the temptation of putting poor strikes up but as you have said better to wait for something of quality.
Cheers Daryl
