  • Losnr. : 1279 Sudan

    1885: Cover endorsed 'On Active Service, No Stamps Available' mailed to a Mrs. Morris in Manly, New South Wales, struck on despatch with BRITISH ARMY POST OFFICE / EGYPT datestamp (April 14) in black. Framed 'T' marking at left but not taxed, reverse with Sydney cds (May 27) and Manly arrival of the same day. Envelope with faults but a remarkable usage from the New South Wales contingent - they arrived at Suakin on March 29, 1885 and were withdrawn as early as May 17, 1885. Faults as are to be expected but a great rarity of the postal history of the 1884/85 Campaign.
