22 Datestamp

Brisbane Datestamp Page

Type 22 A framed circle, 25 mm in diameter, with 'BRISBANE' around the top, 'QUEENSLAND' around the foot and 4 small dots either side; in the centre, in three lines, are the time, month and day, and year in two figures. It was mainly used as a backstamp and was in use between 1901 and 1909

• Type 22 (7 October 1901 - 30 September 1909) rated Common - $10 on stamp and $10 on cover

Campbell's date stamp types 21 and 22 are so similar - as well as appearing to have been used interchangeably - that for the purposes of this blog I have split them up into 3 distinct types: 

21a has a small dot either side, 21b has a larger dot either side, 22 has a square with 4 small dots either side. This later became very worn, although it is possible that there was more than one type 22.

Examples with POB in the top line are date stamp type 23. There is also a duplex type 9a and a duplex type 10 which are very similar to date stamp type 21a - only assume it is a duplex if the duplex portion can be seen

Top line. L-R; Brisbane date stamp type 21a, type 21b, type 22, type 22 worn. Bottom line, L-R: type 23 (POB), duplex type 9a and duplex type 10. There is usually, but not always, an 'A' or 'P' at the end of the time
