and Registered 6 d. vermillion and prussian blue (two examples),
the first stamp with minor double impression, all with mixed
margins and crossed by horizontal crease at top and all cancelled
by rays numeral “36” obliterators. Prepaid 2 s. 6 d. comprising 1

registration. Black “REGISTERED / BRAIDWOOD” handstamp at left
tying the 6d Diadem and London registered markings in red. Multiple
transit datestamps on the reverse to record the journey to
Switzerland. The cover refolded at top and other faults, but a
major rarity with two imperforate New South Wales Registration
stamps. Route - P&O Line: Departed Sydney 14 July 1859 per
“Northam” via Port Louis (7 Aug) to Suez (28 Aug); overland to
Alexandria; “Ceylon” (5 Sept) via Malta (9 Sept) to Southampton (18
Sept); by rail to London, by steamer to Calais (19 Sept); by rail
via Basel to Locarno, arriving 23 Sept 1859 (71 days). Note: The 6
d. Registration stamp prepaid the registration fees within the
Australian Colonies and to the United Kingdom. An additional 6 d.
registration fee was required from England to foreign destinations,
although this regulation was not strictly adhered to. Only five
imperforate registered covers with two New South Wales registration
stamps are recorded. All of them are faulty, one is a front, with
two recorded from Braidwood to Switzerland, both from this
correspondence

Transit datestamps for London, Calais, Paris, Basel and Locarno. Very fine and attractive, being one of the most important imperforate covers from New South Wales during this period. Cert. Eichele (1998). Route - The European and Australian Royal Mail Co: Departed Sydney 23 Jan 1857 per “Oneida” via Melbourne (15 Feb) and King Georges Sound (22 Feb). The ship broke down 400 miles west of Cape Leuwin, Western Australia and returned to King Georges Sound 23.2 and was unable to continue. The Mails were transferred.

Diadem 6 d. reddish-purple, perf. 13, small tear at top, cancelled
by rays numeral “221” of Hunters Hill (rated RRR in “The Numeral
Cancellations of New South Wales” by Freeman), prepaying 6 d. and
underpaid 1 s. 4 d. for a ½ ounce ship letter of 1 s. 10 d. to
Switzerland. “90” (rappen) manuscript in red for internal postage
to be paid by the recipient. Unusually, mail from New South Wales
to Switzerland is very scarce, with the Swiss immigrants following
the Victorian gold rushes and not venturing north over the border.
A small portion of the backflap is missing and minor soiling
confined to reverse, otherwise fine and a very scarce destination
for New South Wales. Route - P&O Line: Departed Sydney 22 Oct
1864 per “Bombay” to Galle (15 Nov); “Simla” (17 Nov) to Suez (3
Dec); overland to Alexandria; “Euxine” (5 Dec) via Malta (8 Dec) to
Marseilles; by rail from Marseilles (11 Dec) to Locarno, arriving
16 Dec 1864 (55 days). Note: The temporary rates increase appears
to have only applied to mail to Great Britain. This envelope was
addressed to Switzerland, and routed via Marseilles which avoided
the British mail system and the potential postage due. However, it
was still grossly underpaid, and not identified by the postal
officials of either New South Wales or Switzerland. Provenance:

Dec) to Southampton (12 Jan 1858); by rail to London, by steamer to
Calais; by rail via Basel (14 Jan) to Locarno arriving 18 Jan 1858
(97 days). Note: All of the early registered covers from Victoria
to Switzerland were addressed to a few families near Locarno. These
were Swiss migrants arriving in Victoria from 1856 heading towards
the goldfields of Sandhurst and Hepburn. Some travelled further
afield to new gold strikes such as this cover from Yackandandah.
With the discovery of gold in 1852, it became a gold mining centre
known for it’s alluvial mining deposits. The Post Office at
Yackandandah opened on the 13 June 1856, the year before this cover
was posted. These registered covers to Switzerland were discovered
around 1925 and dispersed to the philatelic market in Paris. Many
of the covers are in poor condition and most of the stamps are
badly cut into. This collection contains the two finest covers from
this important correspondence. Provenance: Collections Burrus,

recipient was lucky since the postal rate from Victoria to
Switzerland was decreased to 9 d. via Southampton in March 1871
whilst this envelope was in transit, thus it was not taxed on
