Losnr. : 20138 Queensland
2 d. blue, a used example and horizontal strip of five minor faults incl. tear, on 1865 cover from Theresa Creek to Winchester, Hampshire endorsed "via Marseilles", all tied by "29" numeral obliterators in black and backstamped "THERESA CREEK" datestamp (March 5) on reverse (weak but legible, the sole recorded example). Reverse with Rockhampton transit and Winchester arrival cds (May 19). The cover cleaned with repaired opening tears that do not detract and are of small significance. Theresa Creek is a small mining town nearly 1'000 kms. NNW of Brisbane and 320 km. West of Rockhampton. Listed and illustrated in the Ben Palmer Queensland census on page 173. A most attractive and important cover.rnProvenance: Harmers, New York, 13-14 April 1988, lot 704.Ausruf : 1.000 CHFZuschlag : 1.000 CHF
