These postal stationery covers with mixed dies are pretty and are not easy to find.
The various shapes are unusual with the yellow three halfpence being a triangular shield and the Three pence magenta being a kind of trefoil not a circle.

No longer a cover because someone clipped it off ( not Me!) ![]()  1936 was the year of the three kings and when George VI stamps came out there was a fun thing to mix the three on the same cover. What is more distressing is the date 13 May 1937, The first day the Post office was open after the Coronation. |

Australia NSW 1d P/S Cover with GB 2.1/2d Franking from London to Sheffield Vicky & GeorgeVI Very Late Usage Not so much “ late usage” in a postal sense as the New South Wales indicium has no postal validity in GB . The 2. 1/2d George VI is the correct rate. This is more a case of using up an old envelope by that well known dealer Robson Lowe , noted for his sense of humour. |
