2266 PSE image1923 KGV 'FOURPENCE/HALFPENNY' on 5d brown with Curved Flap & Address Lines at Lower-Left as RE16, the flap misfolded resulting in the Stamp being Printed at an Angle, unused, Cat $300 for normal. This is a technically interesting item. It proves that the surcharge, which is on the same angle as the stamp, was applied to unfolded unissued stock.

2283 c image1919 (Oct) stampless cover from England to South Australia with a fine example of the 'FIRST/AERIAL POST/ENGLAND-/AUSTRALIA' flight vignette (a few short perfs) tied by one of two very fine strikes of the large double-oval 'FIRST AERIAL MAIL/RECEIVED/26FEB1920/GREAT BRITAIN TO AUSTRALIA' datestamp, small part of the flap missing AAMC #27a, Cat $5750+ (2008). Plus English Photochrom PPC of the flyers & their plane, and three different facsimiles of the label. [See also Lot 2291] This was the first completed flight from England to Australia, winning the £10,000 prize offered by the Australian Government for the first aviator(s) to achieve this epic feat, that today we take for granted. Tom Frommer (2011) identified 364 covers from the flight, of which this is #190.  (5 items)

2284 c image1919 England-Australia Ross & Keith Smith Flight cover with a superb & exceptionally centred example of the 'FIRST/AERIAL POST/ENGLAND-/AUSTRALIA' flight vignette (slightly overhanging the edge of the cover but not creased) remarkably in combination with KGV 1½d red-brown tied by two of three very fine strikes of the large double-oval 'FIRST AERIAL MAIL/RECEIVED/26FEB1920/GREAT BRITAIN TO AUSTRALIA' datestamp, locally addressed at Melbourne, minor aging and a few small blemishes, AAMC #27a, Cat $5250+ (2008) but no price given for a cover with additional stamp(s). This was the first completed flight from England to Australia, winning the £10,000 prize offered by the Australian Government for the first aviator(s) to achieve this epic feat, that today we take for granted. Tom Frommer (2011) identified 364 covers from the flight, of which this is #289. This is the first time this cover has been offered at auction, which explains Frommer's lack of detail and an illustration. At page 14, he lists the 13 covers (this is the 14th) with an Australian KGV 1d (4) or 1½d (9) affixed, and states "These are among the scarcest & most valuable of the flown covers". Because the 1½d stamp is in the normal position at upper-right, we expect that it was affixed by the sender, probably but not necessarily in England, with the label being added, as always, on arrival at Melbourne. In 2019, another Melbourne auction sold a cover with stamps of Iraq & a KGV 1d red for $10,930. Another damaged cover with stamps of the Dutch Indies sold for $9715.
