Hi Everyone,
I'm quite a fan of SON (Socked On the Nose) cancels. Here is one that got from Roy recently. Thought you might enjoy it too.

Image Not Found

This was cancelled in Ourimbah, NSW, not too far from where I grew up. The cancel date from what I can see was 6th December 1935. This was originally issued in Nov 1931. I'm not sure how long it was in service, but it must have been to at least 1935, unless I'm reading it wrong.

If you have some great SON cancels, I'd love to see them.

Regards ... Tim.

Here's a nice SON on a block of four. Slightly off but as SON as one can get with old hand stamps.

re: Great SON Cancels
