Thought this would be cool in the Dansco 7070 counterstamps:
Edited to add a cut and paste from the auction catalogue:
Medium gray toning. As the logotype impressions are incomplete, the identification of the issuer is uncertain. One possibility is that this is a logotype for the firm of Dresser & Jillson of Worcester, which manufactured animal traps.
From the Stephen L. Tanenbaum Estate.

Counterstamps on trimes are very rare, I am fortunate to own one, yours is probably only the third or fourth one I've ever seen. There can't be more than a couple dozen known.
