canada postmarks no2
A few more conundrums (pl conundra ? ) for your delectation.
1. Belmont ( province illegible) with a time code pm ( hour unspecified - one pm collection only ? ) on a 10c centennial. Fallingrain.com and the Canadian geographic place name finder shows several. I think this is a no-no. 2.(?)arkview and what looks like Surrey ( as in BC ) on a 1c post-war KG6 def. the Surrey Municipal website gives several hits for Parkview and none for Larkview, and I can't think of anything else which would fit - but perhaps any Vancouver-ites have an alternative. 3. Forebay on a 15c Stamp Centennial. No Province name visible but the town name is complete. Cannot find anything for this. 4. A violet rectangle postmark on a 10c Indian tepee. Telegraph code looks like XX19 and place name is PA(R?)KTON.Again no province name. No mention of this place either in fallingrain or Canadian place name site.Possibly could be a Parkton Road/Street/Boulevard etc sub office but where? 5. A Vancouver cds with ?(possibly O). ?.A.A. at the bottom. First 2 letters have not made proper contact so is illegible. Any idea as to what letters are and what it means? 6. A 3c Karch with ROB (E or F ) ?????? Fallingrain gives Roberts Creek, BC,Roberval.PQ or Robertson/Robertsonville ( same place ? ) PQ. I have seen an illustration for Robertsonville and it doesn't seem to fit - and all Google hits seem to indicate that the current name is Robertsonville - but has it changed it's name.The symmetry shows that the first letter after the E/F is the centre which would favour "Robertson". Incidentally this is a single ring cds with small squarish letters rather than the more usual tall thin ones. It could be rubber rather than steel but this is inconclusive. Sorry to be a pest, but this is the end of Canada for the moment until I sort out the next envelope of miscellaneous dross ! Thank you for you continued attention. Malcolm |
