If there is a more appropriate location for this post, I would be grateful
to be guided to it.

I have been asked for a list of cities in the U.S. which routinely--that is,
ALWAYS--provide hand cancelled, decorate postmarks.

Ten calls to Washington later........

There is a bulletin which every post office in the U.S. gets that lists
the temporary decorative hand cancelled postmarks which various towns
are offering in celebration of one event or another, but these expire
in a month, usually.

So if you know of a city with a permanent decorative postmark, please
let me know what it is.  So far I have only Loveland, Texas.....
