 POSTAL HISTORY: (Aug 15) airmail to Tatts, Melbourne with Australia 7d Flying Doctor tied by largely fine complete 'NORFOLK
ISLAND/AUST' cds, then Norfolk Island Pictorials '7d' Surcharge affixed partly over the first cancel and tied by another untidy strike, minor edge faults & light bends. Apparently the Australian stamp was initially accepted, but it was then realised
that this was not valid for use from the island, and the Norfolk Island adhesive was added. In these circumstances, a blue pencil line is usually drawn around the invalid stamp to show that it has not paid postage, but this has not been done. A most
unusual combination franking. (Image1) (Image2)
