Hi Rod
Looks similar to the British newspaper(Journal)-strike.

G'day Peter,
ta, I am not au-fait with those, but I'll look

Thank you

Well, some time ago, I found one alike, on a British newspaperwrapper.

Hi Rod + Peter:

The triangle cancel seems to be used for items mailed at the
BOOK POST rate. I assume that this includes newspapers
and periodicals.

Here is an unsealed cover from South Africa to Germany
(Book Post Rate) mailed in the 1930s. It is cancelled with
a neat 'JH' in triangle. (Johannesburg?) The flap with cachet
are of the SA Philatelist. Scarce half-penny periodical rate.

In a recent auction, an Irish cover was sold. c1922 Dublin
local printed matter cover with 'DN' (ie Dublin) in triangle
cancel.

Here is what I suspect is an Elizabethan periodical rate
cover from London (SW1) to New York with machine triangle.

Here is a similar 6d wartime cover from Ipswich to the USA.

A letter T in a triangle , on the other hand, is a Postage Due
marking.

In other cases, triangle marks are censorshop marks.

OAS in a triangle cancel was used for "On Active Service".
Cover - 1920 incoming envelope from England to Darwin, Australia,
redirected to Port Moresby with GB 1/2d tied by OAS in triangle
cancel
& Papua 1917 1d on 2 1/2d Lakatoi (fault) handstamped "Tax"
(postage due) w/Tax h/s & 1d in crayon.

I suspect that Rod's stamp is off a periodical / Book Rate cover.

Thanks Blair,
I still have your extended response re the triangular postage dues,
this now makes a brace of triangulars.
Sounds entirely feasible, all my Uruguayan queries elsewhere
remain unanswered.
