Pre 1900 Inwards mail to New Zealand from the UK

Post by Jstim »

I'm looking to add any interesting covers to New Zealand from the UK pre 1900 to my database / survey and possibly my collection. Scans gratefully received.

Dispatched 2 Jan 1902 and redirected within NZ. Showing distress but cost very little yet fascinating. 4d is not common at empire letter rate paying 4x 1/2oz., 2d Jubilee much more common. Empire rate from 1 Jan 1901 to NZ much later than most colonies from 25 Dec 1898 listed here
