Arkansas 20th Century Fancy Cancels
|
|
|
In Arkansas, as in most other states, during the 1920's and 1930's, collectors sent 4th class postmasters pictorial cancels related to the town name to use on the front of registered mail. Since the 4th Class PM's entire salary equaled the value of the stamps sold, the PM had a real incentive to use these cancels.
This page shows all the reported fancy cancels of this type from Arkansas.
