783 c image1912 (Nov 19) to "The Misses Bayly c/o Agent General for Tasmania" London endorsed "Please Forward" with Pictorials ½d green and Surcharges 'ONE PENNY' on 2d violet vertical pair tied by three largely very fine complete strikes of 'T.P.O. No2/TASMANIA' cds used on Main Line between Hobart and Launceston, repaired tears clear of the stamps & markings do not overly detract. Imperial Penny Postage was introduced from 1.5.1911. It is unclear whether the additional payment was because the letter weighed over ½oz or for a Late Fee for posting directly onto the train, or possibly because the sender mistakenly believed that the 2½d UPU letter rate still applied.

The 'ONE PENNY' surcharge was issued in late-October 1912 to supplement the 1d stock after the introduction of the uniform Australian 1d letter rate. Scarce used in period, all the more so with the State Government perfin. (Image1) (Image2)
