I am researching material in relations to the events connected with the 1890 Jubilee including the Guildhall and South Kensington Exhibtions and associated postal stationery. I would like to hear from anyone who has examples of unusual material.
In particular I would like to hear from anyone who holds examples of the "Guildhall proofs".

Jones, Putney; Five unused envelopes,(usual toning) two with 2.JY.90 South Kensington; one commemorating Uniform penny postage with various post office markings eg under paid; one uniform penny commemoration 'conveying mail in excess at over 50 miles an hour' etc (see page 178 Whitney) and a 1d pink cut square with 19 may 1890 Guildhall
