This is amazing you found this. Other than reverse engineering and a strong mind what resources do you use to acquire this knowledge?

Stampland,
Philately in general is a collaboration, knowledge handed down over the years and built on by everyday collectors like you and me, and Philatelists whom have the enormous energy to publish.
Mine comes from these sources in the print form, online databases.
Nothing special, my use is the easy bit, advantage gained by other's work.

I like the odd details on the cancel; the stroke through the "1" and the period after the "5".

Austria collectors might use Wilhelm Klein's book, is there a general work on British cancels?
