ex BFPO Post & Go Machine at RAF Northolt
|
A final group of Post & Go Labels exist that come from events or sites that are not readily accessible to collectors. A RM Series II Machine (machine unit M001) is in operation at the BFPO facility at RAF Northolt but it is not accessible to the general public. The Second Class NVI labels carry a representation of a Statue of a Man. From February 2017, a RM Series II Machine (machine unit M011) was in operation at the MOD facility at Abbey Wood near Bristol.
RM Series II machines have been at Political Party Conference venues in 2015, 2016 and 2017. These have additional text such as 'Birmingham 2016' or 'Brighton 2017'.
