Using Google to complete town postmarks by Joshua McGee[_2_]

1. Poland. A modern (ish) stamp Dzierzonio??? ( w? ). I think this is 58 200 postcode( in Lower Silesia), using "fallingrain" and wikipedia.

Scott numbering system by Ralphael1
Scott numbering system is about to send me to the funny farm where all good wackos go. Example: Catalog note after Scott 2597, "Nos. 2595-2597 also available in strips spaced for use in affixing machines to service first day covers." In my opinion that is a coil strip and needs a number, Scott...

Archery Topical. by rodney
http://cjoint.com/data/hni7E0vrT6.htm It reputedly takes its name from the practice of archery there during the Middle Ages, although the name is also commonly linked to its reputation as a haunt for highwaymen. As the name also implies, the district is centred upon a hill - one of the highest...
