Malta to Sydney, New South Wales bearing 1857 Great Britain 4 d.
rose tied by "A25" duplex and prepaying 4 d. and underpaid 2 d. for
a 1⁄2 ounce ship letter of 6 d. to New South Wales. With the

Forwarded on to Sydney a week later with datestamps on the reverse.
Fine and rare, being the earlier of the two recorded covers from
the British Post Office in Malta to the Australian Colonies. Route

overland to Suez; “Nemesis” (6 Dec) to Galle (23 Dec); “Benares”
(23 Dec) via King Georges Sound (7 Jan 1861) to Melbourne (12 Jan).
Australasian Steam Navigation Co: Departed Melbourne (19 Jan) per
“City of Sydney”, arriving 21 Jan 1861 (70 days). Note: The
Australasian Steam Navigation Co’s “City of Sydney” ran aground and
was later wrecked at Cape Green on the 18 Nov 1862 on a voyage from
