This is a bond between H R Sabine of N^o 2 Lovells Court, Pater Noster Row, in the City of London, Licensed Card Maker and Her Majesty. These were required as a Card Maker would be trusted to store Revenue Aces and pay their account at the Stamping Office.
Sabine is an interesting Maker and produced cards in partnership with Thomas Lewis Woolley from their premises at 153 High Holborn and it is recorded in the London gazette that this partnership ended on the 25^th May 1839. This Bond then indicates that it was Sabine’s intention to ‘go it alone’ but did he?

He was made free of the Stationers’ Company in 1839 by virtue of the fact that his father, Thomas, was a Stationer and went on, after bankruptcy, to become a Commercial Traveller and an Accountant. He died in 1895 at the age of 84.

Only one production run bears his name, and that with his partner Woolley, it was patterned back and made for export having single ended courts and was most probably produced in 1836 though Ken Lodge [ 2 ] indicated that their distinctive court cards appear with an an Anonymous Ace of Spades.
Interesting to note that this Bond was produced during the Reign of William IV and all references to His [ Majesty ] were crossed out in favour of Her [Majesty ].

The folded portion, bottom right, is where the seals located.
