Miss by a whisker...?


I have encountered various problems when dealing with cancellations in maximaphily; incomplete - with last one or two lines missing; unclear - due to over-diluted ink; smeared -as the surface of postcard is too glossy, etc.

Take a look at this maxicard. The cancellation was done by the postal staff - beautiful, without any of the problems mentioned. But sad to say : looks like it just misses the teeth of the stamp by a whisker!

Anyway, I am still hopeful that someone will confirm - the postcode touches "a tooth".

Next times, put an [idiot-proof] note for the postmarker to "catch" the stamp. :)
Don't worry about this MC now, especially if you don't plan to exhibit it, or to deal with a FIP fan(atic).
I have my own misses from USPS.
The 3 elements are there, and it's not really your fault for the miss.

I thought to "catch" the stamp is something too obvious to be mentioned to them. May be should take your advise. Thanks. :)
