Bath 1802 - 1804

The second of the handstamps in the 1798-1807 period runs from 1802-1804 and is 29½ x 5½ mm.  The contents of this first example, from December 1802, are a request to identify an annuity.

This entire, from March 1803, is addressed to the New England Coffee House in London.

This example, from March 1803, was originally from London to Bath and was then redirected to Liverpool.  It was a double letter so ended up with a charge of 2/8.

The final two examples are from January and February 1804, the second being to Edinburgh via London.
