Norway Type BA10 Meter Stamp

Norway · 1925 · Variable

A Norwegian meter stamp, type BA10, which is a postal marking applied by a franking machine rather than a pre-printed adhesive stamp. It typically indicates the postage paid and the date of mailing.

Meter stamps revolutionized postal services by allowing businesses to frank mail directly, improving efficiency and reducing the need for traditional stamps. This type represents an early adoption of such technology in Norway during the interwar period.
