20th May (1910-1919) Sweden, Scott #80 10-ore carmine definitive stamp depicting King Gustaf V, issued in 1910 and postmarked on this date sometime in the 1910s. The cancellation is rather heavily over-inked, so it is difficult to discern a portion of it. "PLK" seems clear enough, but I have no idea what that means. If anyone else knows more about this postmark, please post a comment.

I think it more likely to be "Fielding."
I tried enhancement on retroReveal but was unable to discern the year. If I were to guess, I'd say 1983 was more likely because that was closer to the stamp's year of issue (1980).

judith is no longer flirting with Newfoundland! Relationship status .... ha ha Ryan Well spotted, Ryan, I had missed that little nuance in Judith's status! But judith and I have become TSF "friends" so I am determined not to be jealous that she has now moved on from flirting with Newfoundland to playing around with the U.S. Anyway.... 29th May (1925) Australia, Scott #20, half-penny orange, King George V definitive stamp issued in 1923 and postmarked on this date in 1925, in what appears to be the town of Leprena, which is located on the island of Tasmania, about 80km south-southwest of the city of Hobart.  |
