Miscellany 3 - Wedmore, FPO 716, Stocklinch, Patchway, Rooksbridge

 Here is a colourful Greetings Telegram sent to Wedmore in May 1942, with a single ring "WEDMORE" handstamp.

This next item is from FPO 716 to REET Paymaster, Taunton - Somerset, Barrack Office RASC, Wuppertal in March 1950.  I haven't quite got the hang of deciphering all the Army acronyms.

Moving on to c.1956, here is an envelope from Stocklinch near Ilminster to the USA.  The date is unclear but must have been prior to October 1957 when the USA ceased to qualify for the reduced pstal rate.

 The envelope below was from Cleveland to Easton-in-Gordano in January 1985 - on its way it received this "PATCHWAY / BRISTOL" backstamp.

And finally here is an example of a Post Office form signed by the Post Master of Rooksbridge in June 2014 and cancelled with a "ROOKSBRIDGE AXBRIDGE SOMERSET" SID (Self-Inking Datestamp).
