Philatelic items, which were the work of H Edgar Weston, of 386 Brixton Road, London, appear on the philatelic market from time to time. 

In an article, in Gibbons Stamp Monthly (March 2003), Peter van Gelder concludes that H Edgar Weston was in fact a name used by stamp dealer Victor Marsh. He states that the address, 386 Brixton Road, was that of a stamp shop, from about 1915 till the late 1930s, owned by Victor Marsh. I have a copy 2 pages from a Victor Marsh publication from about 1914 where the address is 389 Brixton Road.

Peter van Gelder states that similar covers are also know addressed to H Edgar Weston at 13 Sion Road, Twickenham, Middlesex as late as 1956. I have items addressed to Victor Marsh at this same address as late as 1959. (see Victor Marsh  ptpo newspaper wrappers)

I have a group of 9 different covers each with a pair of printed to private order postal stationery cut-outs. A scan of the one shilling value appears above and to view all the other items click here

This group of nine covers is available for sale if you are interested please contact me by

MAGPIE POSTAL AUCTION No.91 8th MAY 2007
Lot 305. CENSORED “H Edgar Weston” cover addressed to him in London with a superb imperf block of eight x 10d blue GEO V dies affixed & tied by d/ring FIELD POST OFFICE/H13 dated 28.7.1916. each of the embossed impressions is cancelled by blue pencil crosses. At left is censors mark No.1037.

During the same period another stamp dealer, Oswald Marsh,  with a business based in Norwood SE19 was also sending out cards and covers with postal stationery cut-outs. Oswald Marsh is known to have been at Norwood from 1905 till 1939. His stamp business also including publishing.

This newspaper wrapper has been stamped with a cut-out and is postmarked at Norwood  on
1 December 1911. It would appear that it contained a philatelic publication and was sent out by Ewen's Ltd of Norwood SE.

H L'Estrange Ewen produced a booklet "The Unadhesive Postage Stamps of the the UK"  in 1905 in which he mentions Oswald Marsh. Unadhesive in this instance means postal stationery cut-outs. H L'Estrange Ewen was also involved in producing other philatelic publications.

It seems probable that this cut-out on a wrapper is the work of these two men.

Here is an example of a cutout from a newspaper wrapper used on a post card in 1905 by a Stamp Dealer,  I J Bernstein of 9 Albert Square, Manchester, in which there is a reference to "Cut out came safely to hand".
