Wonder if someone can help me decipher the first part of the three line rubber stamp. The rubber stamp is on the address side of a postcard sent from Los Angeles to St John, New Brunswick Canada. I believe that it is an Canadian marking as the card has a postmark from St John.

Any help would be appreciated!

Anybody recognize this auxiliary marking? I do not find anything similar in US auxiliary markings or a website that shows Canadian markings.

Gentle hint ... you will get better results interpreting postal history if the entire mail piece is shown including the reverse side if it has any markings. Just saying...

Thank you for the tip. The auxiliary marking below the Moncton NB postmark could be of US or Canadian origin.
