1837: "POST OFFICE REFORM; ITS IMPORTANCE AND PRACTICABILITY" by Rowland Hill, privately printed by W. Clowes & Sons, Stamford Street, 1837. An original example of this wonderful and historic pamphlet, bound into tortoise shell binding, with the complete 73 pages including the appendix. The pamphlet shows that the Post Office revenue has been falling for many years, the abuses of the franking privilege (ably noted in Jane Austen's novels) and the public's evasion of payment of postage on delivery. Importantly an analysis is given showing that although the Post Office charged 1/1½d. for a letter from Edinburgh to London, the cost was actually less than ¼d. Rowland Hill then suggests that as distance bears little effect on cost that a letter should be carried at a uniform charge irrespective of the distance carried; all letters should be prepaid; to simplify the accounting procedure that letters should be charged on weight rather than the number of sheets. He further elaborates on the above but in the privately printed edition here offered he does not suggest adhesive labels merely stating that prepayment should be in cash or by 'stamped covers'. The public reprinting of this pamphlet brings forward the adhesive labels for pre-payment. Manuscript notation inside "Robert Ransome Esq., with the author's best regards" in Hill's hand. A wonderful and historic book.rnProvenance: Collection H. Dendy Marshall.Ausruf : 1.000 CHFZuschlag : 7.000 CHFLosnr. : 1924 Grossbritannien
