收集本國郵戳後,也開始注意一下國外的郵戳

稍有造型 或有趣的就收藏幾枚來賞玩

看久了,就越想了解這戳背後的故事

定名隨記,因為亂無章法,沒有系統,可以算是個人的發問筆記

所以各位前輩,請不吝指教了

今天分享的是美國戳

圖一
像是鐵軌的兩槓,不知是否為銷戳,還是新票上的加印
軌道裡,有城市名,不知是否如我國"限東北貼用"  之涵義

圖二
姑且暫稱橄欖戳 ,因為很像橄欖球,球中常見數字  及英文字
網路賣場上,曾見球中央,還印有維多利亞的英文  顯然英國也有用此類型的戳
不知這戳的用意及其名字為何 數字不知從幾到幾   個人猜測是不是郵區號碼

圖三
跟一般地名戳又稍不同,圖形橢圓,意外也發現相似光戳的情形,空空白白耶,令人莞爾

各位前輩,請不吝指教了~感溫~

各位郵友,在外國戳有什麼特別的戳或心得,也不吝分享
老話一句,獨樂樂不如眾樂樂~~

請參考ming8686兄 所提供的連結及分享

昨晚的連結不正確,所以刪了

圖一我想太多,不是新票加印,乃郵票蓋戳作廢

圖二原來是所謂的 Killer cancels  
(自譯:殺手戳)  用意是希望蓋住整個票,避免郵票二次使用

圖三雙橢圓戳 主要用於包裹 限時等情況
最右邊的戳名叫mute postmark  (自譯:啞戳)

These are very common cancels.
1.    Precancels – see links below
2.    Killer cancels – see links below
3.    “Double Oval cancel” normally identified as a PPO (parcel post oval) postmark. They were handstamps primarily used for parcel post, registered mail, special delivery, etc., back in the day. There are many variants that were used. Some have no words or letters at all (mute postmark) like the one on the far right, and others have the city and state names. Still others have a letter in the center, often defining the Postal Station or Branch where the postmark was used. Still others have the words "REG" (registered), etc., in the center of the oval.

Try “us stamp fancy cancels” on Ebay (us site), you’ll find lots of interesting cancels.
These links below should provide some of the basic info on US postmarks that you’re looking for.

Good luck!

Thank you very much.

The first  links is not only easy to understand but also providing  the  framework of U.S cancels.

(mute postmark) like the one on the" far right"

" far right"是指??  偏遠地區??  還是字疏忽了??

嘎比兄:
小弟是指圖三最右那雙橢圓空心戳. 抱歉中打實在太爛.

I see~
My poor english ability  is not better than your chiness typewriting    
thanks a lot~

圖三最右邊的雙圈橢圓空心戳
是美國郵政對寄國外掛號封
用來銷在郵票上的戳記
至於美國郵政雙圈日戳
則銷多個在信封背面的各個封口處

謝謝前輩說明

可以的話,請前輩開個帖子,講講好玩的外國戳

ps 比利時的大方塊戳,覺得也很特別,下格還有兩個似十架的圖形,晚上在傳個圖
    
      與我們"上海加蓋航空改值郵票"的十字也頗為相似

嘎比兄,

I believe this is a Belgium Railway Parcel Post cancel. There is a book discussing such cancel.
