More Bristol Postage Due or other Cachets

The airmail envelope below from Bristol to USA in 1977 had charge marks applied in Reading as it was franked with the internal letter rate rather than the airmail rate.

The airmail letter below from Bristol to USA in 1984 was caught in Bristol and transferred to surface mail as it was insufficiently franked.
In 1986 the underfranked envelope below from Bristol to USA was caught at Reading.

The envelope below from Bristol to Weston-super-Mare has a revenue protection cachet - presumably the meter account would have been charged directly for the postage due.

 

Below are two more insufficiently franked envelopes to the USA in 2001 which were caught and diverted to surface mail.
