It is not known when the cancellers transferred from Ipswich to Eagle Junction. In the case of Type 1e it was no later than 1901 and with Type 2a it was after July 1900. Unless the stamp is tied to the Eagle Junction post office, contains the 1907 + watermark or is the 1906 + 2d, you should assume it was used at Ipswich

Fiscal forgeries
I have seen several copies of a Ray Type 1e (6 mm) (about 24 rays) on fiscal stamps as well as an N2a example. These are most probably forgeries and are shown at the bottom of the page
