Chewton-Mendip serif UDC, 1840-1841

The "CHEWTON-MENDIP" serif UDC was issued on 30th March 1840 under Bristol.  Until recently only one example was known, from November 1840, but now a second example has been recorded used in March 1841.

Given the two examples, there are probably others.  The handstamp looks worn by March 1841 so has probably had some use.
