Some more UDCs starting with a couple of examples of the "LUXBOROUGH" udc which was issued in June 1858 under Taunton. Both examples are from 1858.
The "MARTOCK" udc was issued in September 1847 under South Petherton. It is known in blue from September 1849 to February 1851 in blue, with the example below currently being the only recorded example in black.
The cover below has a faint "MERRIOTT" udc in blue (indicated on the sheet below). The udc was issued in January 1852 under Ilminster and is currently the only example recorded. UDCs are both common and rare - whilst the handstamp shown below is the only recorded, it is likely that it would have been used at other times so it is not inherently rare - just difficult to find !
