I was looking at this today, after reading another thread about orange cancels, and my memory kicked in about a stamp I had that looked like an Orange cancel.
Im not sure if it is or not, but I was hoping someone could tell me if the blue boxed cancel is an express carrier marking? My other thought was maybe railroad. What do you think?
This is a bit less certain, as there were other places that also used red, including NYC - especially when cancelling supplementary mail: http://www.cgpostal.com/12cent/slide37.jpg
regardless, it is a pretty stamp, with the black complemented by the other two colors of the postal markings.
