Condition/Description:

"MOON" CANCELS -- starting in most of Canada in January 1950, post offices began to get issued with a rectangular rubber cancel that incorporated the MOON (Money Order Office Numbers), town name, date and province within a box of about --- W 30 mm x H 25 mm. These cancels were in use until March 31, 1973. In theory these cancels were not to be used to cancel anything except paperwork and receipts. Well -- that didn't go exactly as planned -- these cancels have become very sought after !!
