Description
1840 (Jul 3) 1d Mulready lettersheet, forme 1 stereo A1, with “Economical Life” advertisement inside, sent from London to Portsmouth and neatly cancelled by a crisp London “8” Maltese Cross, addressed to a Lieut. Bunce serving on HMS “Tyne”, however the ship had sailed and the letter was forwarded free of charge to Cork to catch up with the ship, backstamped with London, Portsmouth, Dublin and Cork date stamps for JY. 3-7 1840, a most unusual and rare usage (SG Spec. MA32ac).
