Registered Mail - from Enmore, Evercreech, Glastonbury, Holcombe, and Ilminster

More registered mail from my pile, starting with Enmore in 1918, addressed to Bermuda "via New York".  The KGV registered envelope has a very distorted "ENMORE / BRIDGWATER" climax rubber cancel.

Back to the Rating Officer, Shepton Mallet with the next registered envelope from Evercreech in 1940.

Progressing alphabetically we get to Glastonbury in 1944 ...

... and then back to the Rating Officer, Shepton Mallet for Holcombe, Bath in 1940.

Finally here are a few registered items from Ilminster, starting with a registered envelope from 1966 addressed to the Chard Rural District Council.

For a fee the sender could get Advice Receipt, advice of delivery of a registered or recorded delivery as shown below from 1969 for an item addressed to Inwood Farm, Ashill, Ilminster and handled by the Ilminster post office.

The envelope below was sent registered air mail from Ilminster to Kenya in 1972.
