Rare cancellation sold on E Bay - May 2004
One of our members spotted this item on sale at E Bay recently and managed to buy it for $8.00 It now has a "G" rating in Powell's updated book (less than 10 copies known). I think this is the second recorded example.
The cds consists of two concentric circles of 42mm and 30mm diameter, inscribed "NAMATANAI" / "NEW IRELAND DISTRICT" with circular stops before and after the town name. The only recorded date for this item is 23 or 28 Sept 1933. |  |
