1951 30th October, printed Mortgage Bond applied with KGVI £1 strip of three and £50 revenues plus 5/- regular issue (Mewett 277, 282, SG 52), cancelled black oval 'REGISTRAR OF DEEDS' cachets. Apparently a further stamp originally applied in error, removed at the time and cancelled over. Light faults.
 
Note: stamp duty on a Mortgage Bond was £4 10/- for the first £1000 of value and then 5/- for each additional £100 or part thereof. In this case the property was valued at £20000, making the stamp duty £52. In addition a registration fee of £1 was paid, plus a 5/- fee for witnessing the signature, thus giving a grand total of £53 5/-
