NJ MACHINE CANCELS ~ Gene Fricks<br />
SOME INTERESTING NEW JERSEY MACHINE CANCELS<br />
By Gene Fricks<br />
Haddonfield RECEIVED Machine Cancel<br />
This Haddonfield machine cancel appears to be a Barr-Fyke type. I have been able to<br />
document use between 1903 and 1909. Before and after this period, circular handstamps appear to have<br />
been used. Haddonfield had a Barr-Fyke for regular canceling duty between 1908 and 1916. The<br />
handstamp markings are presented to bracket the potential periods of use of the machine cancels.<br />
