Hand delivered?

When stamps don't receive a postmark, it seems they are hand delivered, doesn't it?

Winter Whimsy (2024) from Columbus (possible)


Fairytales (2022) from France (maybe via teleporter)

Holiday Elf label (2022) from California (if Fabienne will loan her teleporter)

Although, to be fair, the barcode label doesn't need a cancel - if you try and send it through the mail again it should be rejected.


Happy Friday, everyone!

  2. The way things are going here, it may be a long time before we get QR/bar codes on our stamps. Most of the time they can't even be bothered to cancel them (except with a pen - aargh)

    1. It makes me wonder if mail fraud is a bigger problem than I think it is. It does seem like more and more countries are going down this road, and sadly I think it detracts from the beauty of the stamps
