Description
Postal Stationery. 1920 (1 SEP) 1d red “Admiral” post card, used to Johannesburg and cancelled with mostly very fine strike of VICTORIA FALLS / S. RHODESIA cds. Fine and rare.
Footnote
The message on the reverse in part reads, 'Picture postcards are sold out.'. The apparent popularity of, and preference for, picture postcards may explain why used 1d "Admiral" post cards are so scarce.
