This thread could use another bump. This is a little low, but it is a nice strike of Tammerfors, the Swedish name for Tampere, on an early Finland.  |

This thread needs to come back to the top...I've found dozens of great socked-on-the-nose cancels lately. I originally thought this one might be a railway cancel, but it turns out to be Wandsworth | Revelstoke Rd. S.  If someone knows what follows Wandsworth in the top arc, I'd appreciate hearing it. |

Looks like SW8. Wandsworth is located
in South West London. Postal code SW8. |

Ah, yes. I was trying to tag the W. and the 8 onto the end of the top arc, but now that I know what it says, I see it is a continuation of the bottom arc. Thanks! |

The bottom one definitely. The top one is more of a "killer" cancel. Also, something looks a bit off as to the composition of the cancel, almost as someone tried to "enhance" it with a crayon... but then again front-of-book and its cancels are not my string suit. |
