This one is a mystery... Looks like a guy on a boat. Are those cannon balls? Is that a cannon falling off the back of the boat? I'm clueless. Try and try as I might for some reason I couldn't get a better photo.

Looks like a representation of The Great Tribble Hunt to me.
How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?

Nice Star Trek reference Earle. Just might be. I'll see if I can get a better picture.

I have this same counter stamp already but I can't find the image of it in my files because I had no idea what it was.

This is a much better struck example and it looks like a man behind a podium giving a speech.

I may be mistaken, but I think the last one may represent a preacher in a suit as well. My mind sees a cloth hanging over the front and like sometimes a pulpit has?

Either that or its a guy standing there with a hockey stick ready to hit the 2 in the date.

Nice example!

Preacher, Toastmaster, or Hall of Fame Defenseman.

@chafemaster, you seem to have an endless supply of new ones. Do you have a sense of how many more are out there? maybe you should write a catalogue?

Oh my. Now that's the question isn't it? I have absolutely no idea. Whenever I seem to run out of counter stamps to post I find some more. It even surprises me how many there are out there. There are even a few that I have found images of online that I've been searching for with no luck. The main one that comes to mind is a Chicago Blackhawks counter stamp commemorating one of their recent championships.


As far as a catalogue I don't think I'd have it in me. Not sure what I would comment or have to add about each one. I don't know. Something I have never thought of until you brought it up.

This one I'm at a loss. Looks like a Minuteman or a Revolutionary War soldier but what is that in the background?

This one is pretty much a mystery to me. The only thing I can think of is possibly a gold prospector? There is an obvious shovel, maybe rails for a cart. Anyone make out anything I may not be seeing? Thanks in advance...
