Notes
An invoice from Michael Watson, "Stationer, Book & Chart Seller", at 340 Wapping, near the Hermitage Stairs, for the supply of a log book and other items to Captain Weare of the barque "Albion".
Michael Watson was the "General and Twopenny Post Receiver" in Wapping from 1805 until after 1849. His handwritten receipt has a printed header including his name and address as well a female maritime figure seated upon an anchor with ships in the background. A rare ephemeral survival.
