Personally, I thought it looked kind of like a hatchet?

Sorta looks like an incomplete impression of a fancy cancel 'shamrock' on its side.

Thinking Frankenstein, but stamp is too early for the Halloween cancels......
Good luck......

Q/ Anybody else think that, whatever the cancel(s), the stamp was cancelled twice?

I was thinking that (forming the "axe"). And it does look like it could be a cork with a missing piece (if you have enough covers from one place and the cancel is distinctive you can see the degradation over the course of a few weeks). Cut cork cancels tended to be short lived.

Bad Axe, MI. Now there's a blast from the past. Spent the last year and a half of my enlisted time at Port Austin Air Force Station. My most vivid memory? Driving the oderiferous highway to Bad Axe passing all the farms that fertilized with pig manure.
