Okay I can read the DON probably for London, but the 90 inside the diamond would be new information for me, and the 134 on the other stamp would be helpful to know. Just trying to expand my cancellation knowledge base. Thanks as always - jeff

Hello again Jeff,

You're right about the 90 in a diamond coming from London. It's an "Inland Section" postmark used in one of the main post office in central London. The 134 postmark is from Bristol.

Jeff, when you see a number inside a diamond like that it is always a London inland section. Nice stamps!

Jeff, I checked and it appears that the number 90 in the diamond is Muswell Hill in London.

The Muswell Hill postmark has the 90 in a circle within the bars (not in a diamond).
