Here is one more for the thread. This perfin is "T G" and it is Thresher and Glenny Ltd. of London. The cover has an enclosure, a typewritten response to a customer in Southport, Connecticut. Mr. Glenny explains that they will not be making an autumn 1942 trip to the States. They will not be able to export anything, as well. Fourth paragraph states, "Our main work is, of course, military and naval uniforms. If you could recommend us to any friends who have come over with the U.S.A. army, they will find that we can take care of their kit replacement orders." Stationery has a nicely engraved imprint with the inscription, "By appointment to the late King George V."    |

Very unusual cover, in that a Freeborn G Jewett, passed away in 1858 Surprising such an unusual name, to be had by apparently 2 people. Update: Maybe not so unusual name.... Freeborn Garrettson, was a famous abolitionist... Possibly named after him https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeborn_Garrettson |
