He was given a two year contract to run the system. In 1840 he launched a service with an envelope, with a reproduction design, of Queen Victoria, when she was 15, created by William Mulready. This design was first created by William Wyon, with his 1837 City Medal. The head was engraved by Charles and Fredrick Heath, with the help of a sketch made by Henry Corbould, which was based on the design of Wyon&#039;s original design.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
