My recent trip to England was not about stamps but about Family and the usual holiday stuff.
However, I did manage one sneaky sidetrack to the Charing Cross Market in London on the morning my Wife and daughter went to the London Dungeon, one of the major tourist sites. Their insistence that I come was ignored....I wonder why !
Two hours at the Market is not enough but I did find some nice items which I smuggled back to Israel.
As you see above, I managed to add one more to the Mercury Air Mail Exhibition label collection !

Below, Railway Stamps.
Followed by a couple of nice Jaipur Court Fee Revenues.
Below, a lovely sheet issued by the Crown Agents to comemmorate the Queen Mum.
Finally, and my favourite, a set of Edinburgh People's League Delivery labels from 1962 in marginal Blocks of four. These, at least for me, are difficult to come by and usually pricey so I was ecstatic
when I saw these for a very low price.
The problem is, I still need many of the other locations !
That's all for the mo.
Londonbus1.....has to work a little
