| Abstract: | For the first time Malta Trade Fair, held in 1952, in San Anton Gardens, two cancellers with arc as spacers, the first of this type to be used in Malta, were used at the Temporary Post Office at San Anton. They were superseded from mail cancelling duties in 1969, when the word "International" was included in the original name. However, the two cancellers have been retained for counter duties (on Registration receipts, etc.) until 1973. The times of the posts were only shown on the date stamps of the first three fairs and on the St. Paul's Shipwreck Centenary date stamps at The Fourth Fair. [excerpt] |
