My Deegam Machin Handbook contains a note of all the postal duties carried out by any Machin value from 1967 to date; if you have a specific query I will try and answer it. Douglas |

The jpg you show is a purely a certificate of posting ( as it states )
sometime ago, there was a charge of 1p (£ 0.01) per item posted. This is not the postal charge, but an additional charge made by the Post Office to issue the proof of posting certificate Today these are free. These offer no more comfort other than you can show that you have posted something. It does not mean the letter or parcel contained anything of importance, it may be something that you wish to show at a later date that you did post, incase of loss, a driving licence, bill payment or perhaps a payment to a court say , that sort of thing Hope this helps David |

Any amount paid for any form of postal service, i consider a postal rate, not least if stamps has been used to frank it. Even free franking could be considered a postal rate. -- Rene |

I have also seen Royal Mail transfer bag labels, with machins applied
.... stamps were applied as a fee from outlying POs to distribution centers ... usually fine cancels too ... |

Who pays for the stamps on the transfer bag tag?
Is it the sub-PO? Maybe I misunderstood how such bags work. Blair |
