Uh, I don't really know if I want to collect this topic, but a few have been put aside over the years... Let's see how much luxury stamp leisure time I have in the coming year... (Hits: 658)

The Land Post (1)
Mmm, we've always been walking a lot in Norway... and from 1896 there would be messengers walking the whole day - up in the morning and down in the evening - to the rural areas.

Name changed to Bestun in 1922. The old cancel was returned to the postal administration on 1922-9-27.

Located at the hospital.
Tøien (3)
Along the railroad was a small stop named Tøien, next to the community gardens. Who would have guessed...
From 1905-07-01 until 1922-07-01. Changed name to Tøyen during the great Norwegian name change bonanza on 1921-10-01.

Nordstrand (2)
Holmenkollen (4)
Officially opened on 1898-07-01. The postal route Kristiania-Holmenkollen would run three times a day with a postal clerk riding shotgun ('postledsager'); only once a day on Sundays and official holidays.
Announced in Circular 21 (1898-06-30).
Apparently the first postmark had the name misspelled, and the corrected pm was delivered mid July.

Bækkelaget (3)
Nordstrandhøgda (1)
Doh! I didn't even know this one was operational by 1925 until I found a parcel despatch note with the postmark on it...
