Confectionary mail in Taunton

Here are a couple of confectionary related calling cards posted within Taunton, the first coming from August 1969.  The card has been updated from the imprinted 4d (printed matter rate) to 5d, the new first class rate introduced from September 1968.

The reverse of the card has a list of Cadbury's products that could be ordered.

The second calling card is from March 1971, just after Decimalisation in February 1971.  The old 4d printed franking has been uprated by ½p, though this does not seem enough.

The reverse has a list of Rowntree's products that could be ordered.
