1206 On piece, front, etc. imageSaint Helena: 1819 (May, June) Manuscript accounts, set of three narrow folio pages prepared by Joseph Cole, bound by original ribbon, recording the supply of food, books and spirits to various Islanders, the charges incl. "stuffing a saddle, a cow bought at auction, two lanthorns for Mr Balcombe, raffle for Capt Rous's horse, Midwife attending Mary…" and other items. A fascinating insight into Island life from the period of the Emperor Napoleon’s residence in exile. Joseph Cole was appointed Postmaster on Saint Helena in 1815 and held the position throughout this period, the Post Office being moved to Cole’s office in the house occupied by Messrs Balcombe, Cole & Co., the private trading company with a monopoly to supply ships chandler and victualling services to all visiting vessels and sole agent for the provision of supplies to Napoleon’s household at Longwood. The suspension of the packet service on July 12 1819 (all mail thereafter to be sent at ship letter rates), provided an excuse for the U.K. Government to withdraw their support to Cole, leading to a drastic decline in Post Office services.

1208 imageSaint Helena: Tokens for Local Usage, 1821 Solomon, Dickson & Taylor 1/2d. (2), East India Co. 1/2d. (2), condition fair to fine. The arrival of the exiled Napoleon had brought great prosperity and doubled the island's population. As a consequence two copper coinages were ordered from England specifically for local use, the first of an unofficial nature. However, before either of the new copper coinages arrived Napoleon died on May 5 1821 and many left the island. Although the demand for the halfpenny pieces never reached the level originally conceived, the halfpennies remained in circulation for many years. (Image1)
