smauggie 09 May 2014 11:53:34am	Here is the cover. Pretty straight forward as far as I can tell. Mailed from Hoya (Hoya County) November 21. I can't figure out what this transit/marking is saying though, which is on the back dated November 22. Login to Like this post canalzonepostalhistory.wordpress.com

smauggie 09 May 2014 07:21:46pm	re: Help with Transit/Received Cancel from North German Confederation (1868-72) So an overnight trip down the Weser from Hoya to Bremen. Sounds like fun. Thank you Arno. Antonio PS This cover is part of my Cover the World postal history collection, with the idea of having a piece of postal history from every stamp issuing authority.

postmarks I still have more questions than answers 10 May 2014 01:44:04pm	re: Help with Transit/Received Cancel from North German Confederation (1868-72) Antonio, I too once had the same ambition to collect at least one cover from all countries. I gave up on this plan several years ago and I bet I have some stuff for you. Pat Login to Like this post pjsstamps.blogspot.com/
