Went to Batsto yesterday unfortunately the Guy who runs the Post Office had a stroke so it was closed, the envelope was purchased in the Gift Shop with the enclosure included. I had no idea they didn't have a zip code. Next time I'll call first.

Batsto cancels are fairly common since they are aimed at collectors and the pictorial cancels are done frequently. So I've checked this one off my list!
Still, since I'm using the NJ Postal Historical Society's book "New Jersey Postal History" as my guide, I do need a cover for the 1852-1870 and 1882-1911 periods to be complete. And I wouldn't mind an early cover from the current era, like a 1966 first day of post office cover.
