Item no. C71 (cancel)

Type: cancel

Country: Sweden

Date of issue: 9 December 1942

Cancel on cover commemorating 200th anniversary of birth of CARL WILHELM SCHEELE (1742 – 1786), Swedish chemist and pharmacist. He discovered several chemical elements and compounds and the effect of light on silver compounds, the basis of photography.
The item is kind of FDC as the official date of issue of the stamps and use of the cancel are the same - 9 December 1942.
