I Like The Older Classic Cancels

i look to many of my older stamps and seem to notice many things.
i think I like the pen cancels the best.
even the writing then was like art

How true Dan I like them too. I never understood why they are considered less valuable with a hand written cancellation.

Ive just realised

Is that what this is ? I had posted it in ugly stamps

:) That one was hard to see but yes it is a pen / hand cancellation.

Yup its faded and faint but still there , love the humor in it :)

I thought it was scribbled on and therefore junk

I agree totally with you lonedan. I've just finished sorting some of my older US and found some really neat cancels when my computer and scanner start talking to each other again I'll post some.

LONEDAN and WetGlaswegian,

Just a tip about posting images.

If you would like to have your images appear directly in your posts (instead of linked),
then you need to edit the text which is inserted into your post after you upload them.

It is really quite simple.
Just remove all the text around the URL of the picture, and them enclose it in a pair of image tags.

The URL is the text that begins with 'http://' and ends with '.jpg'.
An opening image tag is '[img]' and a closing image tag is '[/img]'.
Note the closing image tag has a slash in it.

So when you are done, the edited text should look like this:

[img]https://www.stampcommunity.org/uplo..._hahhaha.jpg[/img]

which will display like this:



It's great to have you both on the forum.
best regards,
Tom

A proper scribbler wouldn't have stopped with the glasses but added
a mustache and beard. And made the glasses shades!
