Scottsdale Gets Third Arizona Stamp Canceller
A $25,000 automatic stamp canceller installed in the new Scottsdale Post Office speeds mail processing to 36,000 letters per hour. The machine uses electric eyes to detect stamps, but cannot distinguish U S postage from Christmas seals or trading stamps. Postal officials warn false stamps will be spotted, and six workers operate the device, which can do the work of more than twice its manual effort.
