Never heard the term 'flats' before rod222 when referring to these 'large format cancellations'. It is great to to see some new examples though and here is a recent addition to my own collection of these postmarks,
OAKLAND, CA 946 MON 07 MAR 2022 PM An added bonus is that the middle stamp (Uncle Sam’s Hat) has the plate number coil number - 'B' followed by seven single digits which occurs every 31st stamp in the coil. For anyone interested, there is an article from an earlier TSF newsletter written about them here. Have fun and happy collecting! P.S. Thanks for the recent trade Chris Beryllium Guy and getting this one into the album :-) |
