International & Great Northern Railroad Printed Precancel Uses

The International & Great Northern ran entirely within Texas, and their stamp with printed cancels may be found with cancelations from stations and depots across the state.

I&GNRR Austin, Texas Handstamp

San Antonio, Texas, Handstamp


I. & G. N. R. R. CO. Handstamp


Tyler Station Handstamp


Galveston, Texas Handstamp, document fragment from Focke, Wilkens & Lange bill of lading (see a full BOL below)


Printed precancel invert with Houston handstamp


Bill of lading for oysters, salmon, and something that looks like a packet of rice, which I assume is a 100lb bag or sack.


I&GNRR draft with precanceled two cent battleship stamp to pay the check tax.  Funds were drawn from the accounts of the Michigan Central Railroad.
