The 1 cent block of four cancelled by JP Morgan in a previous post is likely example of payment of this tax requirement.

The Chicago, Burlington and Quincy printed cancel on a previous post is a likely example of stamp removed from on of these types of railroad documents. The AMEX cancel probably represents a stamp used for this tax as well.
