British Columbia. Lajoie Falls 1915 Split Ring cancel on piece. A cut portion from the "Sea to Sky Region" collection of renowned BC postal historian Andrew Scott. This cancel represents the only known example of the postmark from this short-lived Post Office open only 2 years (1914-1916). The townsite, named after local entrepreneur and "mountain man" Lazack Lajoie. The Lajoue Dam and powerhouse, built in 1948 to contain the reservoir of Downton Lake, now occupy this site. A must-have for the BC postal historian. Estimate =
