Rare Postal Rate 1801
EL to Stonehaven with the fine MONTROSE namestamp AN245
on front. There is no manuscript postal rate
on front, but there is an endorsement on reverse
"One letter/one hapenny/Dispatched/20th at 8". Apparently
there was a private arrangement between the postmasters of Montrose and
Stonehaven for the carriage of mail between the towns, these local charges
were usually 1d or 2d but this halfpenny rate is the first and only
example seen in Scotland. Image 1 Image 2 |
