Crowned Circle Handstamps. New Zealand. 1844 (16 May) entire ...di più
Crowned Circle Handstamps. New Zealand. 1844 (16 May) entire letter
from John Seal Bird in Wellington to his sister Lady Maxwell in
London, with red framed "paid at/wellington" on the front, oval
"wellington/ (crown)/ my 18/ 1844/ new zealand" on the reverse and
red London receiving datestamp (5.10), manuscript '4' showing four
pence paid but deleted as a double rate letter, also '1/4' to be
paid by the recipient. Endorsed "Tyne", mail was taken off the Tyne
in the Channel after she became stuck on Margate sands. John Bird
arrived as a New Zealand Company settler with a land allocation but
struggled. An advert from the New Zealand Gazette and Wellington
Spectator gives his address at Te Aro Flat and his occupation as
Cabinet-maker, Upholsterer and Paper Hanger. The long transcribed
letter thanks Lady Maxwell for a gift of £25, building a house, the
natives demanding a high price for their land without paying "utu",
buying a section, buying a brick making machine and a flour mill;
most interesting. S.G. CC8 (Estimate £150 - £200)
