I see that the Royal Mail is just as bad as Canada Post for cancelling their stamps with ballpoint pen. I have also seen covers from the US, NZ and Australia (to name just a few) that arrive the same way.

I won't buy any more new issues because of this.

That's very interesting that there are stamps on both sides.
Does anyone know if in the USA, the Post Office will reject or return to sender if stamps are placed on the backside?

Is that the address in the bottom right corner? I've mailed to the UK often, and always have like five lines...

Very nice, thanks for sharing!

I sent some stamps to a gent in Australia a couple of months back, and had to put some stamps on the back, because I ran out of room. I even had to purchase some extra postage, and the fellow at the post office wouldn't apply it, saying it had to go on the front, and he couldn't be responsible.
So I put it on myself and sent the envelope on its way. Got there in record time! Less than a week from Canada.
Go figure!
