Cover from Sri Aurbindo Ashram Post Office…

 

Picture 019

A philatelic Counter was inaugurated at Shri Aurbindo Ashramm  Post Office Pondicherry on 15th August 2013. The above cover was posted to me  on 19th August by  someone from this Post Office which I received today. But the sender has not mentioned his name on the cover. My Thanks to the sender.. But I wish to know the name of the kind sender. The new name of Pondicherry is Pudducherry but the cancellation bears the name Pondicherry.

The department of posts introduced a permanent pictorial cancellation shown below at Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Puducherry on 15th August 2013, to mark the birth anniversary of the revolutionary-turned-philosopher-saint Sri Aurobindo. The design of the cancellation is based on the symbols of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother.
