cover BRISTOL: 1819 entire letter from Calcutta to Birmingham, rated "1/4" (then reduced to "1/-") and inscribed "pr Bristol" in manuscript, the address panel showing fine strike of the framed "INDIA LETTER/BRISTOL" (measuring 48x15 mm. and unlisted by Robertson) in red; creased, toned and a little defective but still most presentable and the only recorded example of this marking. Also 1837 entire letter from Mauritius to London, rated "1/2" and inscribed "p Velox", the address panel showing two light but discenable strikes of the recorded In.1 type in black. Interesting content, both being with full transcripts. Photo for the first
