Picked this one up at our monthly stamp club swap the other day. Maybe it's a "dated"? Red Ink Jul /53 and on the bottom it reads "FELLER".
Thanks for any replies
Mike

Yes It Is! Enjoy you stay with us here!

It is a "FELLER" applied by a typewriter used from 1946-53. A nice find.
Fellers also used an "F" applied also by typewriter from 1943-46.
Fellers is a department store.

A tidbit about Feller's Dept. Store:


Quote:
Feller's ("The Store Dependable") was originally a woman's dress shop and was opened by a Romanian immigrant, Charles Nachlath Feller in 1922 on Market Street in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. He later moved to a larger location. and added a men's department, but was most widely known for furs. Feller's closed in 1977.
