U.S. Machine Cancel Identifier – Barr-Fyke with 8-Bar Killer

Your machine cancel was made by a machine sold by the Barr-Fyke Machine Company of Kansas City, Missouri. This example is rare, in that it has a killer with 8 horizontal bars. The more common form of this machine’s impression has vertical bars for the killer, rather than than the horizontal bars of this type.
