Nice one, Stefani:
I like them with light cancellations. However, t360's example with the blue cancellation is also very nice.

 Here is 2c black Jackson used on a patriotic cover postmarked at Coalmont, Pennsylvania. It is addressed to Mr. John Wilson, Barton, Allegany Co., Maryland.  Barton is in west Maryland near Cumberland, about 70 miles from Coalmont, PA.  |

What a great thread of information. Only problem is now I have to have one  . I will be keeping an eye out for a black Jack, (other that the one in the bottle at Steve's house). And that patriotic cover is a beaut Tom. I have to agree with Dianne, you are a Magician. |

I could swear I read a story in one of last month's stamp magazines about a guy who used a ton of Black Jacks to decorate the walls in his boyhood bedroom. He must have nightmares about that today. |

G'Day all,I picked these up this week from a S/Wants auction,one on the right is a bit scruffy but it's the best centered black jack I've seen to date.  regards Harry Oh and P.S. there both bottom end with cut and missing perf's but $10.00 for each I couldn't resist the temptation Edited for P.S. |

I think AJ was a bit "scruffy" himself.  [Edit for spelling] |

 I won this cover at the H. J. W. Daugherty auction held today at WALPEX.  The grill jumped out at me, it was listed as #87 "E grill". |

Thanks Harry! I agree with Tom (nr-notrare) that a bold unambiguous grill is more important than centering on the US 19th century grilled issues. |

Yes mate you and NR are both right,the grill tends to jump out at you and you don't seem to notice the off centering  .  |
