Here are a couple of Parcel Post items from Bristol, starting with two parcel tags used by Hudden & Co., a tobacco company, in 1902 to go to Hamburg. The stamps are cancelled with a "BRISTOL" undated roller cancel.
This second page shows part of a parcel wrapper, sent registered from Bristol to Bude with a franking of 1/7d. One cannot tell how much of the franking is for the Parcel post and how much for the Registration fee. The wrapper is franked with six GVI 3d stamps with "JFT / B" perfins.
