The first handstamp for Frome (pronounced "Froom") was spelt "FROOM" (in use 1760-1778). Subsequent handstamps swapped between "FROME" and "FROOM". Below is an example from 1773.
This next cover has a "FROME" skeleton from 1902. The Skeleton is known between 7th and 17th September 1902.
Lastly, a cover from Glastonbury with an unboxed "No.3" receiving handstamp, in use at Shapwick.
