I know that vertically oriented precancels are typically limited to coil stamps, however, how would I classify these? They don't look as if they are box cancels (but could I be wrong)?





(Excuse the horizontal lines from an album page that shows on the above scan, as I didn't want to remove the stamp for scanning).

Also, if they are precancels, what precancel types are identified here?

Any comments would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Poughkeepsie PSS-608 and East Aurora is L1 or L2 hard to tell from the scans. EA is always found vertical. Poughkeepsie is unusual, but handstamps come in many orientations.
