Halloween tomorrow - Skeletons !

Final batch of skeletons, starting with one from Dorset.  Beaminster in Dorset was in the Crewkerne Penny Post.  The skeleton below is dated 9th July 1906 in manuscript - the year slug in the skeleton appears to be missing.

Some later examples from the 1920s - firstly one from Street dated 17th August 1921, and is known used from 25th July 1921 to the example below.

Two examples from Clevedon dated 10th and 12th September 1924.  The cancel is known used between 11th August and 24th September 1924.

And finally an example from 1975 - a philatelic registered envelope from Hatch Beauchamp dated 14th January 1975.  The cancel is known used between 31st December 1974 and 4th March 1975.  The example below is missing some letters from the cancels.
