The C&NW System's Sioux City & Pacific Railroad

The printed precancels of the Sioux City & Pacific are among the scarcest of the 1898 railroad printed cancels.  There are only three collectible dates, so the universe of these cancels is quite small.  Completing the collection of three is a challenge, however.  I'm still searching for an example of the 1900 cancel.  I've borrowed the 1900 scan below from fellow collector Charles Souder.


No date:

1899:


1900:


1899 on bill of lading fragment:
Railroad agent handstamp cancel applied in Sioux City, Iowa.
