POSTMASTER / POSTAL MANAGER DATESTAMPS, etc.

#1 Post by Ross Ewington » Mon Nov 01, 2010 6:23 pm

Postmaster and Postal Manager datestamps / handstamps ...an interesting filed where there is much yet to be discovered.

Here's one from Gormanston I noticed in a mixed lot of Australian material recently offered for sale on a website.

Has anyone seen this with a dateline?

If you have images of similar datestamps / handstamps (you can include other post office departments or officers), please share them
with us in this topic.
