Geschiedenis
The licences were for one year, and were issued by the Commissioners of Stamps and Taxes in accordance with 50 Geo. III. c.41: the Hawkers Act 1810.
Licences for hawkers and pedlars were first introduced in 1697. They were managed by the Board of Commissioners of Hawkers, Pedlars and Petty Chapmen. In 1810 this Board was replaced by the Board of Hackney Coach Commissioners, and then in 1832 the licencing work was taken over by the Board of Stamps and Taxes.
