Not from any known, Skinner or Cole.....
Thinking Frankenstein, but stamp is too early for the Halloween cancels......
Good luck......
although if you turn it 183.321 degrees, it looks like a cheetah laying on a tree branch with a baseball glove in its mouth

"I collect stamps today precisely the way I collected stamps when I was ten years old." Webpaper 05 Mar 2016 01:28:21pmre: What Is This?? I was thinking that (forming the "axe"). And it does look like it could be a cork with a missing piece (if you have enough covers from one place and the cancel is distinctive you can see the degradation over the course of a few weeks). Cut cork cancels tended to be short lived.

Spent the last year and a half of my enlisted time at Port Austin Air Force Station. My most vivid memory? Driving the oderiferous highway to Bad Axe passing all the farms that fertilized with pig manure.
