Four good strikes of the Belfast split 62

Neat inspector marking

Excellent strike

This is a 1910 Blarney Castle picture postcard used from Belfast to Durham, England. It received the boxed LATE FEE PAID 62 marking (62 being the post town numeral of Belfast) and had a halfpenny stamp extra because it was a late fee paid at 8.45pm on the day of posting.

This is a prepaid prestamp outer from Derry with a red boxed PAID AT DERRY marking, overstruck with a No. 5 Receiving House mark in black. Sent to Dublin, where it received the squared PAID marking of May 31st.
