Slogan postmarks for June - and other interesting postal markings.

June will have started as May ended with the default British Heart Foundation postmark although I've yet to see any examples.

We might get one for Father's Day as we did in 2023, and we might get one towards the end of the month for Pride Month, but there are no other regular slogans in previous years.  Maybe the Royal Observatory will be marked, as has been done with previous years' June stamp issues.

Update 10 June

As predicted, the Father's Day slogan is in use. Thanks to OD on Stampboards for this example from Manchester Mail Centre 00/06/2025.

Don't forget
Father's
Day

Sunday 15 June

Other postmarks and postal markings

Nothing remarkable was provided for May, except this one which was delivered in June, so I am including it here.   Thanks to JH for sending this example of a 'Morse code' counter handstamp from Crab Lane Harrogate dated 30 May 2025.


Here from Google street view is the PO branch in the OneStop store at 40B Crab Ln, Harrogate HG1 3BG, which also has a bank of InPost lockers.
