Spokane WA 990 / 13 NOV 2019 PM 11 I can't quite read the slogan spray cancel. Is it Mail a smile / Thinking of You / STATION ?

Well, Mick, for what it's worth, I read the spray cancel the same as you do. I am not sure that I understand what the STATION part is there for. The other parts make sense, and I think that you have read them correctly.

I love this tread - I've been silently admiring all the fine postmarks you guys been posting. This thread has inspired me to start another project: A new section in the bookshelf! The postmark Calendar, spanding 6 volumes. The Vario Grande binders are spacious, so each binder has room for 20 years, with a dedicated spot for each day. I have simply arranged the pages with one week per line like this: And here's this day half a century ago, and by coincidene it was on a Monday in 1971 just like this year: 15th November 1971, on Frederick IX definitive of Denmark. King Fredrick died a couple of months later The album page above is for now populated by Kind Fredrick only. Looks quite ok, however the idea is to use this calendar for a mix of stamps/postmarks from any country, just like in this thread. My only criteria is that in addition to the date, the place should be possible to identify - and I am only including small size definitives. This hobby is just getting better and better - now with even dated cancellations to look for!

So, this morning I went through my FRANCE dups (following a big new binder received from a friend (his dad's)) and picked the best "postmarks" and tomorrow they will leave for Norway - another addition to the project !!

I suspect that you could do this postmark just by using Machins.
