Incoming Mail Overland via Southampton 1883 (May): Argentina 6 c.
postal card used from Buenos Aires to Charters Towers, Queensland
cancelled by a framed Buenos Aires datestamp (May 31) and prepaying
6 c. for a postcard to Queensland. The transportation of the postal
card was interrupted in London (July 1) where the “POSTCARDS TO
THIS ADDRESS / CANNOT BE FORWARDED” handstamp in red was applied
and the card returned to Argentina. Route - Royal Mail Steam Packet
Co: Departed Colon 7 June 1883 per “Nile” via Jamaica (9 June),
Jacmel (12 June) and St. Thomas (14 June) to Plymouth (28 June); by
rail to Southampton (1 July) and returned to Buenos Aires, arriving
1 Aug 1883 (62 days). Note: The reason for the refusal to forward
this postal card from England to Queensland is difficult to
determine. This card has imprinted at top “Universal Postal
Universal” for when Argentina joined the UPU in 1878. The card was
only available for delivery to UPU members and since The Australian
Colonies only joined the UPU in 1891, the postal card was thus
refused transmission in England and returned to Argentina

“4” (pence) credit in error by Great Britain to France for

1858 via Galle (8 April) to Suez (23 April); overland to
Alexandria. P&O Line: “Valetta” (26 April) via Malta (30 April)

to France should have been 8 d. for a ½ ounce ship letter not 4 d.
for a ¼ ounce letter. Although addressed via Marseilles to France,
this envelope was delivered to London on 4 May and redirected back
to France. The Southampton mails arrived on the 11 May, confirming
this cover was indeed sent via Marseilles. Provenance: Collection

(schillings) manuscript in red for forwarding to be paid upon
receipt. Transit datestamps on obverse and reverse record the
journey with a very fine strike of the Hamburg arrival datestamp
(Feb 4). An important historical lettersheet in very fine
condition. Route - European and Australian Royal Mail Co: Departed
Melbourne 16 Dec 1857 per “European” via Galle (9 Jan 1858) to Suez
(24 Jan); overland to Alexandria. Royal Mail Steam Packet Co:
“Tamar” (26 Jan) to Malta (29 Jan); "Vanguard” to Marseilles (1
Feb); by rail from Marseilles via Paris to Hamburg, arriving 4 Feb
1857 (49 days). Note: Unrecorded in "Pre-UPU Mail of Victoria" by
Ben Palmer and one of the earliest covers recorded to the City
State of Hamburg known. Note: This illustrated lettersheet depicts
the newly discovered gold mining town of Castlemaine. Gold was
discovered at Mount Alexander, near Castlemaine in July 1851 and by
the end of the year, there were 25,000 people at the diggings. The
lettersheet was illustrated by Nicholas Chevalier, with his
monogram at the lower left and published by A. T. Hodgson of
Castlemaine. It is interesting to note that besides a depiction of
the new gold town, in the foreground are two Chinese miners, one of
the earliest images of Chinese miners recorded in the Australian
Colonies. Chevalier was one of the most prominent colonial artists,
emigrating to Victoria in 1854. For the next 15 years he painted
throughout Victoria, before returning to London in 1869. Based in
London, he was a continual exhibitor at the Academy until his death
in 1902. This lettersheet is very rare, being the only recorded
example - it is not present in the State Library of Victoria and is
the only example known in this dual sheet format
