    1 / 1
    1864/71: 6 d. red-brown - five single examples, a pair, a strip of three and a strip of five, all used on 1867 registered cover from Okarito to Darmstadt carried via Panama on the 'Ruahine'. and cancelled by "C/5" obliterators in black. Three further 1864/71 1 s. yellow-green applied in transit at Hokitika, overlapping some of the 6 d. adhesives and tied there by "21" numeral obliterators (it is probable that Okarito had no 1 shilling values and that this cover exhausted their stock of 6 penny stamps). The addressee's name deleted and a few imperfections but with Hokitika cds on reverse (Oct 12), Christchurch cds (Oct 16) and 'Registered / London' oval on front in red (Dec 30). An astonishing rate of 10/6d. and almost certainly the highest recorded franking of the Chalon period.rnProvenance: Collection Maurice Burrus, RL, July 1963, lot 337; Collection John Woolfe, Spink, Oct 2006, lot 309.
