Bristol Mulready - Stamp Office

A brief diversion to Bristol (maybe a foretaste of things to come) with a pre-printed Mulready letter sheet from Bristol to Tetbury from the Bristol Stamp Office in June 1842.  The Mulready has a black maltese cross and a characteristically vermilion double-arc back-stamp.

The reverse of the Mulready from the Bristol Stamp Office saying "Three of the Sovereigns were deficient in weight.  I have taken them at the value allowed by the Bk. of England "2-19-4".
