Tonight, I will share with the club a nice addition to my specialized Hong Kong collection. I recently bought this Hong Kong stamp at a stamp show in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, USA, which has a paquebot cancellation from Victoria, British Columbia, Canada dated June 21, 1935. The circle measures 28mm in diameter. Webb lists this cancel on page 381 as item 19(ii): "A 28mm circle containing PAQUEBOT at the top, VICTORIA at the bottom, and across the center POSTED AT SEA / RECEIVED / and date in three lines."

Below is a better example of this entire cancellation, with a different date, image snipped from eBay/stamps:
