This is a second envelope protesting the introduction of the new
two-tier rate system in 1968. Since both are addressed to the
same person, Arthur Blair, the editor of Stamp Magazine, it is
likely that Blair solicited these covers to be sent to him.
The ribbon along the top of the address reads:
Reject this folly Britons & be in blessing blest
Below the address is:
ANOTHER PRINCIPLE FORSAKEN IN THE NAME OF PROGRESS
Below Rowland Hill the text reads:
SIR ROWLAND HILL
He gave us One Class Post.
Below the computer the text reads:
THIS MACHINE
is taking it away.
The text flowing around the computer reads:
CALCULATION
WORK STUDY
COMPUTER
INDUSTRIAL CONSULTANTS
