 Sideface 1882/91: 1 s. pale mauve, a used example on 1893 registered cover to Budapest,
Hungary tied by barred numeral and "REGISTERED / GYMPIE" cds (May 1) and manuscript "R" in red crayon circle. The Address somewhat unsurprisingly mis-read by the Post Office as 'Uruguay' and endorsed "S. America" at lower left. Backstamped in
Montevideo (July 9) where re-forwarded to Budapest with arrival (Aug 9). A most unusual cover, scarcity can be gauged by the fact that only one pre-UPU cover (this though is post-UPU) is listed in the Ben Palmer Queensland census to Hungary and none
at all to Uruguay.rnProvenance: Prestige, Melbourne, 14 Aug 2010, lot 293. (Image 1) (Image 2)
