HC Deb 18 December 1957 vol 580 c398
31. Mr. Hurd

asked the Postmaster-General why lettercards were not obtainable at Reading main Post Office on 12th December; and if he will give an assurance that he will continue this device.

Mr. Marples

I am sorry that exceptionally heavy demands have caused a temporary shortage of lettercards at some offices. I can assure my hon. Friend that there is no question of withdrawing them from sale.
