The date is ‘AUG.278’, but there is obviously a digit missing at the end, as Sutton Park did not open until 1/7/1879. So it would presumably have been issued on 27/8 in an unidentified year in the 1880s. The lot also includes four 3rd singles from Birmingham St’n St. – to Budleigh Salterton LSW (via Bath and Templecombe), Cheltenham, Church Road (cl. 1/1/1925), and Northfield. (5) | £90 |
