An example of a William Mulready letter sheet in the Terry's company archive today, postmarked 1840. Introduced as part of the British Post Office reforms on 1840, they proved much less popular than the 'Penny Black' stamp and were quickly abandoned.

On this day in 1948 the new National Health Service was launched. This issue of the Nursing Times described it as a 'comprehensive service made possible by the State for its citizens, not as a form of charity, but as their right.' Happy Birthday to the NHS! #nhs76
