| Swiss SERIE A, B, A (1920, Rui) |
 |
Two cancels with KRISTIANIA SERIE A and SERIE B, respectively, were delivered on 1920-2-19. However, a new order for SERIE A has been delivered to the PO on 1920-3-3... And for the name change in 1925, two Serie A are delivered.
A piece by Olga Ellis (Filatelistisk Årbok 1994, p 119 and 105) suggests, if I understand her correctly, that the Serie A may have been used for "telegramanvisninger", i.e. wire transfers. This may explain the need for two pmks, if there was to be one at the PO and one at the Telegraph station -- for handing out receipts.
Or are we in deep water here? How if the Serie A was used for receipts (in two cashiers' windows) while the B was in the back office?
Please help out if you can.
In Hellik Rui's order books, following the name change recall, there are two different SERIE A strikes, suggesting both were in use until 1925. Their dates read 31 XII 24. (Hits: 688)
