Great Britain. Postal History. 1791 (May 3) “Rebus” (pictogram) letter from W.H. Bracebridge to his sister, rated “3” on the front and with d.s. on reverse; some slight staining and ink burning, but charming, and a very early form of this intriguing method of communication. Translation included. Photo
