study of the issues and their usage. A scarce group (34). Note: It
is unclear why the 1920 Large Camel 3 m. green postal card was
printed in green instead of the reddish-purple. A theory is that
the colour of the local cards was kept green like the 2 m. cards
when the postage rate went up from 2 m. to 3 m. in 1917. When the
card was issued it is not precisely known as there is no mention of
colour in the De La Rue printing records. However, the last Large

used cards are date 1922
