Notes:
Royal Mail ceased operating the travelling post office in two phases: five regions on 8th/9th January 2004 and another three regions, the year before, on 25th July 2003. At the time, I arranged to get a number of covers postmarked on each of the TPOs operating on the last days. To these covers I have added a new Travelling Post Office Post & Go stamp issued on 15th February 2017. NB in some instances, the stamps may vary to the ones shown. There are eight different designs and original postmarks. See the special offers page to get the set of 8 covers for half price!
