Northern Virginia (NOVA) Spray Cancellations
On November 15, 2023, Club member Jerry Weirich presented the results of his original research into the spray cancels of Northern Virginia (NOVA). The post office at Merrifield, VA is one of the USPS facilities that tests new spray cancellation processes and types, as such the postmarked NOVA mail is on the leading edge of the latest cancellation and marking innovations. This presentation reviews the origins and types of cancellations. Best of all this continues at the Merrifield post office so check your NOVA postmarked mail. Updates and requests will be added.
