Halloween coming up - time for some Skeletons !

I've already shown a few skeleton cancels from Burnham, Glastonbury and Wellington, see here.

Here are a few more spread over the next few posts, mainly gathered at Midpex in July 2013.  Most are from the 1903-1909 period, with one from 1911, a couple of a slightly different format from the 1920s and one from 1975.

Frome skeleton dated 7th June 1904 - this handstamp was in use from 20th May to 6th July 1904.

Glastonbury skeleton dated 27th November 1904 - handstamp in use from 16th November to 9th December 1904.

A later Glastonbury skeleton dated 26th June 1911 - handstamp in use from 13th June to 20th July 1911.

Midsomer-Norton skeleton dated 25th April 1907, handstamp in use from 26th March to 11th May 1907.
