Postal History
1670 (7 Nov.) long entire letter with a very fine strike of the exceptionally rare "3/off" (Office) and Bishop Mark 'no/8' marking on reverse, usual filing fold just crossing the marking and slight stains, otherwise a superb strike of this rare mark.

Note: One of the first six London Reveiver types. Sent during the end period of the Free Frank system and so struck with Bishop Mark.
