I am not very familiar with GB Victorian/KGV-period cancels. I'm hoping someone more knowledgeable can help me with this.
A sample of what has me stumped:
I have some extra time on my hands and am trying to keep mentally busy. I decided to go through a long-neglected set of Victoria stamps and catalogue plate numbers and ID postmarks. I do not have a reference book for the PMs but found this website which is helpful:
The Great Britain Philatelic Society
I seem to be unable to ID where these postmarks are from. They appear to me to be part of duplex cancels (ref. 3rd from left), but I'm not sure. Am I correct in my guess that these are from London, or at least another major city with multiple post offices? Any help with location along with the significance of the numbers and letters would be much appreciated.
