Which countries have no CTO?

Indeed, apparently Australia Post allows gummed postage to be canceled
at the P.O. counter and inserted into a transparent envelope on the
package, not attached to the parcel. I have some lovely full-gum AAT
gutter blocks obtained this way from a stamp dealer (I have had a
falling-out with him, but he was very gracious in this regard.)

"Peter Baumann" What about this:

My "spybot" didn't like that link
warned about a "first page"

I am surprised.
I recently thought I had read that this practice was forbidden.

I have sent a high value U.S. to one of our old fellows here and it
was cancelled, then slipped into a protective cover - of sorts. It
was THE postage for said package.

Not normal practice, but I have a few friends at my P.O. They won't
go totally out of their way, but seem to be accommodating enough.

But, they are still cancelled to order. In do understand about the
postal duties and am hoarding U.S. and Belgian precancels,

The Netherlands precancels are nice,
but hard to find for moi,

Yes, they are interesting, but not that common, it appears. Maybe
because people snatch them up when they see them?

Rod,

not just for you


Seen any Dutch CTO's???

Most Cour International de Justice stamps are cancelled to order as you
couldn't buy mint ones. Mint stamps sneaked out through the Court itself
and are very expensive nowadays...

What about the 1994 Light Houses that have a offset-litho printed "cds"
and were enclosed for free with the Dutch ladies magazine "Margriet" to
encourage women to start stamp collecting!!!

I was thinking more along the lines of B1 - B3, Tuberculosis Society.
But, those will do!
