Scott #21 White Paper, Facit #21a [1873 7 sk Posthorn] Used with F-VF centering and a crisp, VF centered "CHRISTIANIA OMK." (Type 4) 26 May 1875 single-ring RAILWAY cancellation, used in the proper time period. This stamp is hard to find with such complete and well-centered cancellations and hard to find with railway cancellations. An excellent example in very nice quality.

Scott #18, Facit #18b, Carmine on White Paper [1871 3 skilling Posthorn] Used with Fine centering and neat, upright, fully dated 21 June 1877 "(BUREA)U REEXPEDIANT DE CHR(IST)IANIA" single-ring RAILWAY cancellation. A strike from this cancellation device is too large to fit on a single stamp; this is about as good as it can get on a single stamp! In the NK Postal II (2014) this cancellation has a price of NOK 50 on the red 3-skilling value, but examples this nicely struck are hard to find.

21 [1873 7 skilling Posthorn] Used with F-VF centering and with well-centered, nearly full, "(NORD)BANERNES POSTEXP II" later-period RAILWAY cancellation (but still valid for postage). Beautiful example. Railway postmarks are seldom seen on the later-used skilling stamps. Very pretty.

B2 [1930 20 + 25 øre Nordkap] Used VF+ with neat (D)OVREBA(NEN) 1930s-type RAILWAY cancellation. This cancel on this stamp is scarce -- from 1930-1931 this stamp was only sold at Nordkap and Oslo, and then through 1935, this stamp was only being sold at a few additional locations: Bergen, Trondheim, Hammerfest, and on board the Hurtigruten Bergen - Kirkenes ships. Uses at other locations, and especially on trains even after 1935, are seldom seen as before 1936 the stamp would have to be brought in by the sender.
