Stamford, Spalding and Boston Banking Co Ltd, Five Pounds (7), 11 October 1880, G 3285; 18 October 1886, H 9348; 22 May 1887, G 8686; 26 October 1887, I 1010; 29 March 1888, I 1501; 16 May 1888, I 2333; 28 November 1888, I 3553 (Grant 5636C) [7]. All with V-sections cut from signature areas and most with stamps and signatures on backs, otherwise fine to very fine (£120-150)

The date on the first is unusual as it is uncertain whether the bank had achieved limited status by that date (see date of note in the previous lot)
