One of the most prolific cachet makers of the 1930s and 1940s was Crosby. His cachets can usually be identified by a thermographic design with a small picture pasted into the design.

Reitred from the Navy, Crosby seems to have gone "overboard" with the Royal Visit of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth to North American in May and June 1939.

I have listed this set of cachets in this order:

Country (Canada, United States, Newfoundland), Subject (King, Queen, King & Queen, Family, Train)

 

All the Canada cachets are followed by the United States cachets which are followed by the Newfoundland cachets.
