Hi, I have a lot of about 50 different NY cancels that I would like to sell that range in date from 1913-1941. Can anyone tell me anything about them? Like is HUD short for Hudson and how many terminals there were in NY or how do I find out, is there a list? Church Street, Kings Bridge, Station M, P, O, 2, 3, 4, Grand Central Annex, Madison Square are a few of the collection that I have in front of me. Thanks in advance.

The last post are postage meter imprints, from mailing machines that offices and businesses use. You have a nice selection from the early 1940's (and late 1930's, too.) There are many styles/types of these meters. This online catalog (in 3 parts for US alone) gives some good examples of what to look for in identifying the various types of meters: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Intern...rica,_Part_1 |

First scan row 1 nice Flatbush. Row 3 first is FDC, second is nice world's fair. Last row nice Williams Bridge Station. Second scan second row last is 3rd class cancel. The second scan does not show slogan or killer bars. Nice little collection showing many of the NY stations but nothing of more than nominal value. |

Thanks for checking those, I really appreciate your time. And thanks for the "wiki" link, that is a great place to poke around. You all make stamp/cover collecting fun ! |
