Public Auction #186 - Postal Stationary

1911 Fullface 1d(+1d) outward-half with 'WITH REPLY CARD' Barred-Out BW #P29 to Albany with Perth machine cancel of 10MAY17, minor blemishes, Cat $10,000. One of the great rarities of Australian Postal Stationery. [As noted at Lot 2021, the 1911 1d+1d Reply Cards were supplied only to Western Australia, where few, if any, were actually sold. Because it was WA that returned these cards in 1917, the 3978 single cards resulting were re-issued only to WA. The ACSC states that only one unused & one used example of #P29 are recorded. No example of the reply-half #P30 has been recorded]
