Machin Anniversary Slogan First Day Cover

A reader anticipating the use of a Machin Anniversary slogan has been fortunate to obtain a first day cover from Glasgow Mail Centre, the Post and Go set additionally being cancelled with a Glasgow CDS.


The slogan, like the one I showed for Father's Day in the earlier post, is much better than would normally be seen on Post and Go stamps.

Thanks to AM for this picture!  I doubt that many slogan FDCs exist.

However (update), on his excellent 'ATM Collection' blog' George Wu of Taipei illustrates a cover he received from Exeter Mail Centre with one PandG Machin Anniversary stamp and the Machin Anniversary slogan.  If you are really interested in machine-dispensed stamps of the world, then you probably already follow George's blog: if you don't maybe you should.

    1. Hi Terry

      It's mentioned, but not illustrated, here on the June slogans post.
