BC British Columbia Postal History. Ellison & Grand Haven - A top notch duo of seldom seen, short lived BC post office split ring cancels. The first, Ellison BC 1913 split ring cancel incoming cancel on picture side of postcard (P.O. open 1912-1920) posted from O.L.&S RPO (Okanagan Landing & Sicamous RPO). Second, the very scarce Grand Haven BC 1932 Split Ring cancel cover (P.O. open 1924-1933). The Grand Haven is only the second example I have seen, a very scarce marking which makes sense when you realize how remote that Post Office was (west of Fort St. John). Choice pair, both from the collection of BC postal historian David Klus. Estimate =
