1839 (Dec 5) Entire letter from London to Foden Bank near Macclesfield posted on the first day of Uniform 4d Postage, charged 4d with a Dec 5 backstamp (year unclear); the enclosed letter written on 5th Dec 1839 includes "this being the first day of the alteration in the rate of postage you will, I believe, for this or any other letters from London have to pay 4d only. When the rate for the same distance is to be reduced to a penny seems very doubtful". Exceptional content.
