The two pictorial cancellations illustrated here were designed by Don Regole of Regole Designs in Tucson, Ariz.
The Feb. 14 postmark shows the opening notes to Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata. The Feb. 15 postmark features two measures from Symphony No. 9.
To obtain the postmarks, address your request to:
