TASMANIAN MAIL: 1d deep rose + 2d emerald + 2d emerald over ½d bright orange subsequently overprinted 'AGENT/FOR THE/TASMANIAN
MAIL/HOBART/Messrs GORDON & GOTCH/Queen Street/ Melbourne' WS10.1 (rated RR; unrecorded unused), 'HOBART'-in-bars cancels, significant creasing with attendant fault between the ½d & 1d embossings. Stated to be one of only two recorded examples.
