Description:
Pre-cancellation of type b 1 (MICHEL) : typographic overprint with the location and year of validity.
This type of overprint is used on this stamp from 1907 to 1912. According to MICHEL only to 1911, but that’s clearly a mistake.
MICHEL classifies the overprint on n°. 78II (= Belgian n°. 81). BELGIAN Catalog classifies the overprint also on n°. Michel n°. 78I (= Belgian n°. 81A).

MICHEL grants only 1 number for this type of precancel. BELGIAN Specialized Catalog however grants a different number for every year and every location:
PRE5 for “BRUXELLES 07”
PRE6 for “BRUXELLES 08”
PRE8 for “ANVERS 09”
PRE9 for “BRUXELLES 09”
PRE12 for “ANVERS 10”
PRE13 for “BRUXELLES 10”
PRE16 for “ANTWERPEN 11 ANVERS”
PRE17 for “BRUSSEL 11 BRUXELLES”
PRE20 for “ANTWERPEN 12 ANVERS”
PRE21 for “BRUSSEL 12 BRUXELLES”
PRE22 for “GENT I 1912 GAND I”
PRE23 for “LIEGE I 1912 LUIK 1”

Attention: there are also other, hand placed pre-cancellations with monolingual or bilingual indication of the location an a two- or four-digit indication of the year of validity. These are no typographic overprints and MICHEL doesn't grant a catalog number for such hand placed (type a) precancels. A specialized Belgian catalog distinguishes more than 6000 different hand placed precancels.
