Well, Rodney, you know how retiring and modest I am about my collection, but yes: I can top a Hyderabad registration label. How about Morvi State?  (With the 1932-3 2 Anna, SG 11) |

Not a label, per se, I suppose, but Canada issued registration stamps from 1875-1888.  And later on, just a big black R would do.  |

Quote: you know how retiring and modest I am about my collection Ooh Reallly? I don't think the Morvi tops Hyderabad, rather, sits alongside it. Very nice the shocking Pink, is easily identifiable. The Indian overseas forces covers were in shocking Pink. Why do we often observe addresses crossed out and replaced? it this a regional translation thing? |

Hello, I like this thread because this is another thing I collect. I collect all auxillary stamps on covers as well when they come along. Tghanks Davis    The first one is Rotterdam. Prins Hendrikkade is a street in Amsterdam. The second one is Rabat, Saudi Arabia The third is Praia-It is the capital of Cape Verde in the Atlantic Ocean. It is on the southernmost coast of Santiago Island in the Solavento Island gropu. The fourth is Ascuncion Paraguay- Might be a registered airmail? Not sure. The fifth is Porto Nova-the capital of Benin and the former capital of French Dahomey. The last is El Salvador. |

Two early Paris Labels, I am trying to identify the hexagonal postmark Any French speakers present, who could advise if this page has anything remotely consistent with the example, please? If so, the translation. (hexagonal des facteurs) http://marcophilie.org/x/x-hex-i.html  |

 Not so long ago, a Hagners sheet of Registration labels came up for auction, "Right!" I thought they are mine, nobody else collects those things. How wrong.  went for circa $18 IIRC. |

 Hi Rod. If I remember correctly, some years ago, mon ami Pierre Courtiade and I had a chat about these Paris hexa-numbers. I remember long, long ago, when I still had a waist, the E-13 postal station was in the 16th Arrondissement on boul. Murat. My doubts arise from the fact that I am not 100pc sure these were actually the numbers Pierre and I (and Bruno, I think) were discussing. Your page shows all sorts of cancels for from rural and urban receipts to naval - colonial - documents and everything in between. I hope this helps (though I doubt it). Cheers. |

Cheers Tony  I would have asked Pierre, however, I have recently loaded MS Office and promptly lost all my old IE newsgroups (don't you just love computers) Havn't taken the time to find rcsd again. Postal Station...that sounds about right PS: Since the invention of braces, who needs a waist? |
