Lot Details
1942 (25th March) 3½d blue KGVI on plain cover First Day Cover. Crisp GPO SYDNEY 130 N.S.W AUST cds & neat typed address to Hayward C Parish. The ACSC 231y states "A purported First Day Cover is known dated 25 March 1942". Like JC Thompson, HC Parish worked at the Sydney GPO & it is noteworthy that this cover is cancelled with the same No. 130 cds usually applied to the Thompson covers. Excellent cond & rare. (see inside back cover)
