Bangor Maine used this Barry machine cancel into 1909 with many similar town dies. This town die appears to match die "Lg" used in 1908. See Morris & Payne's "The Barry Story", vol 3, page 38, and compare the R at the end of Bangor. I vote for a 1908 use.
watermark is a large double lined U.S 60j.Have compared Rs in Bangor with one on ebay . Back line of my R is thin and tapers down and centre of my r is thin. comma after R, ebay 1908 back line of R is thick and same size and the way down, center of R thick. I will add high square back type cover and never sealed glue not used to seal flap
