VERY RARE ABERGELDIE CASTLE CANCELLATIONS: 20 Aug 1955 envs. & PPCs bearing 2d or 2½d Wildings cancelled by "ABERGELDIE CASTLE/ABERDEEN" cds's. This postmark was in use for only 2-3 hours at a sale of works to raise funds for the repair of Crathie Church, the Royal family's place of worship when resident at Balmoral Castle. The stalls at the fete were manned entirely by members of the Royal family & the Royal household. Probably the scarcest of all the modern "temporary" postmarks. (6 with cancels + 6 PPCs of the castle)
