Query No. 48 BNB 1901 1c with 7 bars

 

1901 BNB 1c with thick bar cancel. ? 7 bar, each bar 2mm in thickness and 3mm spacing between bars. I thought it was postal use in Labuan but does not match the cancels that I have on my Labuan stamps. Can someone help?

 

Many thanks

Most probably Mempakul see page 678 of Vol 2 of the NB Handbook

Thanks Peter, but it does not conform the to one in Proud's book or the other Mempakuls that I have. I think there is still much to learn about the bar cancels of North Borneo.
