Thick 'POSTAGE' Crown/SA 8d dull ultramarine ACSC S47b on OHMS cover with PMG's Department imprint at lower-left, very worn 'REGISTERED ADELAIDE/MY30/14' cds & red/white R label (damaged), to Austria, unusually with no transit or arrival backstamps, pinholes at upper-left & a small nick at the base. Unpriced on cover in the ACSC, which prices the unpunctured stamp on cover at $750. Punctured 'OS' is much scarcer.
Thick 'POSTAGE' Crown/A 4d dull orange on OHMS cover with PMG's Department imprint at lower-left, 'REGD ADELAIDE/18AU14/STH AUSTRALIA' cds and red/white registration label (damaged), to Yorkshire with oval 'REGISTERED/26SP14/LONDON' transit backstamp, 'HULL' and 'BURSTWICK' arrival backstamps of the next day, minor blemishes. [The late use suggests that this may be from the final printing on Thin Pre-Gummed Paper ACSC S41ba, Cat $125. However, it may be S40b, Cat $40; neither issue is priced on cover]
