    Another very quick transaction, with my item arriving safely having been inserted in a plastic pouch before being placed between two stiff plastic boards and then into an envelope. The billhead was exactly as described/pictured and was good value as the trader kindly applied a discount. The postage costs were also very reasonable.

    An interesting example of a registered airmail cover, from Guernsey, dated 29th September 1945, with a complete set of WWII, six Jersey Blampied Pictorial stamps, used after the liberation of the Channel Islands from German occupation, on 9th May 1945, in clean condition, good communication, packed well, accurately described, and sold at a keen price. The delivery was speedy. Thank you.
