In 1952, Richard Fullerton confined his 1898 documentary printed cancel list to the precancels of railroads and railroad-related express companies in addition to two philatelically suspicious street railways. In a previous post in this series (and the August 2024 American Philatelist) I've highlighted a railroad missed by Fullerton that was a part of family of railroads included in his list, the Tyler Southeastern Railway. I also added many varieties and types that were not listed by Fullerton. The upcoming series of posts, however, will highlight a range of Fullerton unlisted items that range from railroads to insurance companies, mimeo cancels seeking a proper identification, philatelic contrivances, and cancels that appear to be precancels but are not. Stay tuned!
