On one side of a piece of wove paper roughly 275 x 230 mm. Printed and manuscript text clear and entirely legible on worn, creased and grubby paper with one small strip of paper repairing reverse. Crest of City of London at head. Two sets of four columns, side by side. The four columns are: 'Ships at Market', 'QUALITY', 'Ships sold' and 'PRICE'. The whole of the 'QUALITY' column in the first set is headed 'NEWCASTLE', containing 45 entries from 'Adair's' to 'Walls End Walker'. In the second set of columns the 'QUALITY' column contains separate sections for 'SUNDERLAND', 'Blyth, Scotch, Welch & Yorkshire', 'Traders' and 'Small Coal'. The reverse bears a manuscript column of thirty-one entries, presumably the work of one of the traders, beginning with 'May 28: 1825. [L] 1 - [S] 3 - [D] 4' and ending with 'Ocer. 28 T 1830 | by Cash J - C | [L] 3 . [S] 10 . [D] 0'.
