Slogans used in August will be shown here; please check for latest updates before spending your time scanning, but if you have something new or another format, then please do send it in for publication.
July's slogan postmarks went out with no new additions, and continued into August with the default British Heart Foundation support slogan.
Here are some with August dates, thanks to RW
British Heart Foundation slogan SE Wales Mail Centre 04/08/2023 |

Remember, all postmarks appearing in August will be added to this post, so check here before you spend time scanning and emailing. I'll add new ones as quickly as possible.
I've not had a slogan postmark, or any postmark, on any of the stamped mail we've received for a few weeks.
ReplyDeleteIt makes me wonder if Royal Mail thinks there's no need now that stamps are barcoded, but barcoding won't stop people reusing uncancelled stamps if they don't know what barcoding is for, and they mostly don't know that.
On the other hand I have had almost all my Mail with Slogans, and on some with both Slogans & or CDS, I have not had a Pen through a Stamp in Months
