I've taken a notion to explore/collect Machine Cancels with the 'American Flag' cancellations. Can anyone recommend some places/sites to search with the intent to buy ? I've seen some on eBay already but there's not a great selection.
Thanks..
(I've already signed up and joined "The International Machine Cancel Society")

One place that has interesting and inexpensive covers and postcards is Dr Jim Stamps on eBay When on the site do a search for "Dr Jim flag cancel" - they regularly post various flag cancels at VERY reasonable prices The Machine Cancel Society has an excellent exhibit for anyone interested

Hi Danny, I just did a search on ebay of the Stamps category using "flag cancel" as the search terms and it returned slightly over 3,800 listings. Not all of them are flag cancels but a majority appear to be. Apart from ebay, two other online auction sites that may have what you are looking for are HipStamp, delcampe and perhaps Etsy.

As a 'follow-up', I also joined a group called " Post Mark Collectors Club" via the internet which has lots of post office information available through membership.
