Merry Christmas all!

I've seen a few references to Occam's Razor, so by all probabilities, this is not a Montreal SC2. That said, I cannot fit the town into any of the other SC2s in the Scott 2019 catalogue.

I wish there was more of the cancel...

Any comments?

I think you are confusing Type II with Hammer 2.

It looks like a normal Montreal Type II (Hammer 1)

Can distinguish it from hammer 2 by the shape of the R.

As far as I know, there is only one copy of Hammer 2.

Stupid Occam! And yes, you are correct about my being mistaken. Thanks! Chris

Glad to help.

I love cancels myself. Would be great to find another hammer 2.

A Montreal hammer 2 nude strike on a 1c Small Queen.

There are 5 reported Hammer 2 strikes - 4 on stamp and 1 on cover.

Thanks
