Firstly a registered envelope from Claremont, Weston-super-Mare - it is difficult to find postmarks from Town Sub-Offices and this has a nice single ring cancel, plus uses a blank Weston-super-Mare registration etiquette with the TSO number (2) filled in by hand.
Other things that are sometimes difficult to find are Skeleton cancels - some are quite common but others not. Here is a "CREWKERNE" 23mm skeleton cancel, known used from 29th April to 10th May 1909. The postcard has a small railway triangular mark which I cannot decipher - others I have seen have been associated with mis-sorts. Or it may be to do with the postcard's passage to Bidford in Warwickshire that had been a Railway Sub Office up to 1905 ?
