I received this cover today, 3 pence reduced rate domestic airmail first flight or first day of rate.

UPINGTON TO PIETERSBURG
NOVEMBER 1 1933

The opening bid on eBay was rather low and I ended up with it at a most modest amount.

I searched eBay and the internet for similar examples and found only one.

A similar addressed to the same person, J'BERG TO DURBAN, listed at 59 pounds sterling.

Made my heart go pitty-pat, but then I doubt it worth close to that amount.
