Machine stamp questions
Anyone in this group collect or know anything about old machine stamps? The kind I am refering to are printed with one color ink on a envelope. Are these machine stamps or do I have the wrong term? Some I have seen just have a round or square box with the postage amount printed, some with date, and have the state and county. If there is a web site or somewhere I can find more info on these, I'd appreciate the info. Barry

Machine stamp questions
Barry,
I'll post more when it comes to hand, or US collectors may wish to chip in. Value is a loose mistress, Barry. In the fiscal sense any stamp under 10 bucks catalogue is worthless, but a worthless stamp, say a "theft prevention" issue from India and I am a drooling mess. As your collection grows and you fill a space with a 1c stamp, its magic. Leave the value up to the Scroogy dealers, that is not to say, be vigilant for the out of place, it can finance more of your collection. To a Pitney Bowes franking collector, your issue may be gold, he can trace the number on the frank to the private owner of the machine. Otherwise 1c each in the bottom of the phossick box. A trick also, to boost your sales, is to collect, and when you have several sheets put 'em up for auction, you will be surprised. Collectors love collections and information. Registration labels are about 5c each, put up 3 or 4 pages and you may get $35, depends who is in the room. Caveat: this just my 2c "phantomm_1" Not sure what that means... I got them with some other stamps years ago. Just kept em, worth anything other than for info? Barry "rodney" pookiethai@NOSPAM iprimus.com.au wrote in message ...

Machine stamp questions
Rodney, In the 2 examples I posted, there are no date and time. Are these not suppose to have date and time? When I first got them, one of the things that stood out to me was that there is no date, time and year on them. I have some very similar and some different that have the date, time, and year. Some are from the 1930's. If there is something like this or other that someone would like to see, etc. just let me know. Barry "rodney" pookiethai@NOSPAM iprimus.com.au wrote in message ...

Not the pre printed permits, used for bulk http://cjoint.com/data/cmaiTeIIHN.htm but the Pitney Bowes, you are quite right, and frankly I have no idea, (now I am interested  This is why Newsgroups exist, we all learn I'll snitch your scan and go looking on the web. good observation. rodney
