Let's Go! Citizens Military Training Camps

Thought this was kind of cool - and a nice stamp for it to be on

Nice cancel Mike

Makes perfect sense that machine cancel was applied to that stamp, as that slogan was used from 1923-1929. The stamp was issued in 1925, right in the middle of the period of use.

That is a Luff# 3765B type used in various cities from 1925 to 1929. That style, with dashes before and after the "C" in "CAMPS" ( - CAMPS - ) is only in the International Postal Supply Company Killer dies.

The style without "dashes" is made by Universal Stamping Machine Company Dies (Luff# 3765).

In an all-out effort to increase the use of airmail service, the Post Office Department reduced the rate to 5¢ per ounce. Beginning with this issue, airmail stamps were restricted to exclusive use on mail carried by air and could no longer be used as a substitute for ordinary postage. The design features the beacon light that is atop Sherman Hill in the Rocky Mountains.

Rule, shmule.
