Sub-group PD-G: Digital label with "POSTAGE DUE" across top, Intermec[edit | edit source]

  • The Intermec Postage Validation Imprinter trial that took place in the late 1980s produced Postage Due stamps in addition to postage.




Type PDX-A1A in the 2001 edition

PD-G1. Intermec (digital), January to March 1986. [RRRR]

From the same system that produced Type PO-B5.2 but instead of an eagle design the stamp has large negative "POSTAGE DUE" across the top.
Four machines (000009, 000010, 000011, and 000012) were used in Vienna Virginia (VIENNA / VA). Postage Due stamps have been seen or reported only from 000011 and 000012.

NOTES:

  • Postage Due stamps from machines 000009 and 000010 may exist but have not been seen by or reported to us.
  • These stamps are known only a mint tapes sold to collectors. No covers properly franked by this stamp are known to exist.
  • Presumably a Postage Due version of Type PO-B5.1 was in use from July 31, 1985 to the end of that year, but no examples have been reported.



Type PDX-A1B in the 2001 edition

PD-G2. Intermec (digital), March 1986. [R-RRR]

As Type PO-B5.3 but instead of an eagle design the stamp has large negative "POSTAGE DUE" across the top.

NOTES:

  • The early labels used in Vienna, Virginia did not have anti-peel slits. Starting in late 1986 or early 1987 labels with anti-peel slits cut into the edges came into use. All stamps from the other locations were printed only on labels with anti-peel slits. The Vienna stamps without the anti-peel slits are relatively scarce.
  • Nearly all these Intermec Postage Due stamps available are mint tapes sold to collectors. Just a handful of covers franked by this stamp are known to exist.
