    1943: Essays (3) for proposed 25 m. value, showing 'Exprès' and 'Postes' (bareed) in Arabic at top, hand-drawn in ink with 'Royaume D'Egypte' at base, the vignette showing Postbox on a brick wall and Motorcycle alongside, two without the 'bricking' background and one with Postal Courier riding the motorcycle; the 'bricked' Essay also showing manuscript 'Expès 15 m/m' in pencil. The designs were rejected and the new issue was essentially very similar to those of 1926. Just these three Essays are recorded, all are illustrated in Smith on page 483. A splendid and rare trio Nile Post E484/E486 = $ 750.

    Note: Peter would never have missed the opportunity to purchase the Express Essays, as they combine two of his hobbies - philately and motorcycling.
