1820 (Feb 24) Printed letter with black mourning border, from Lord Palmerston seeking re-election as MP for the University of Cambridge in the forthcoming election, due to the dissolution of Parliament following the death of the King, the letter and outer wrappers both signed by Palmerston. The wrapper addressed to Stanmore, endorsed "not dated" with an inspectors star alongside so charged 1/2, with a "2" London Local Post charge mark. Very unusual. (Cover + letter).
