Six items. The collection in fair condition, apart from Item Two. ONE: Printed form, a 'List of Subscribers' for the 'Post Office Relief Fund. | Second Appeal.' Dated '11/14T', i.e. November 1914. (In 1914 the Post Office set up a relief fund to help relatives of GPO staff who had gone off to fight.) 1p, folio. Eleven lines of t…ext are followed by the 'List of Subscribers', in three columns headed: 'Name', 'Rate for every complete 10/-' and 'I hereby authorise the deduction of my Subscription from my salary', the last subdivided into 'Signature' and 'Rank'. The form has not been completed, apart from the 'Name of Office' being given as 'Tydd St Giles', with a pencil note: 'Please return this form to Wisbech as soon as possible'. TWO: Printed circular by NFSP General Secretary E. W. Walker , on letterhead of the National Federation of Sub-Postmasters, Kelvedon, Essex, 19[09]'. 3pp, 4to. Bifolium with perforated form addressed to Walker, and dated to 1909, on second leaf. The circular asks the recipient to join, explaining the aims of the NFSP, and the benefits it has been 'instrumental in obtaining'. In poor condition, with damp staining, and damage to paper causing slight loss of text. THREE: Corrected typescript of an anonymous article titled 'A Postal Anniversary' (last word amended from 'Memory'). 2pp, 4to. Apart from emendation of title, one manuscript correction. On two leaves pinned together. In fair condition, lightly aged and worn, with rust staining from paperclip. Undated, but the reference to 'the centenary of the Penny Post' dates it to 1940. Concerning 'the annual procession which, up to the first quarter of the 19th. century took its way from the General Post Office [.] to St. James's Palace there to salute the monarch on his birthday'. Concludes in the assurance that 'when happier days come, as come they will, there might be worse ways of celebrating His Majesty's Birthday than by doing honour to that hard worked, not-too-well-paid, always-welcome public servant, the British Postman'. In manuscript on reverse of second leaf: 'H Saxe Wyndham | 4 Gipsy Lane | S.W.15.' FOUR to SIX: Three items pinned together, all addressed to George Ritchie of Linlithgow. One is a bill headed 'Dr to the Postmaster-General on Post Office Telephones Account', from District Office Scotland West, Glasgow, 'To rental of exchange line telephone from 26th June 1916 to 25th. Septr. 1916 @ £4 4/- per annum and covering 100 outward local calls'. Another is a printed receipt, completed in manuscript and signed by a cashier 'For The Postmaster General'. The last is a TNS from the Glasgow District Manager, Post Office Telephones, to Linlithgow solicitors Glen & Henderson, 12 October 1916, re 'Postmaster General - V - George Ritchie'. Acknowledging receipt of various items.
