I collect the Transorma marks of Peterborough and have heard that a number of FDCs were issued from Peterborough with these marks. I'd be interested in seeing any that exist.
The marks were applied to both incoming and outgoing mail; and, appear to be applied to identify the clerks who sorted the mail. My guess is they were used to evauate the sorting abilities of the clerks as they don't seem to correlate to locations within Peterborough or whether mail was incoming or outgoing.
I'd be interested in seeing any FDCs with these marks.

Here is a link to some selected Transorma covers (no fdcs). http://charleslivermore.com/transorma/index.htm
