;) | The \"GALLE PENNY\" Surcharge on NEW SOUTH WALES mail routed through Melbourne, VICTORIA (NSW64889) 1874 cover marked via Galle to Dublin, Ireland with QV 1d, 6d pmkd Sydney MY 16 74 duplex, no backstamps, part flap missing. Ex Trevor DAVIS (2002), Emerald (2003), CHARTELL (2018). When the new contracts came into force in 1874 New South Wales refused to contribute to the P & O service because Melbourne, Victoria was made the mail terminus, and because NSW favoured the route via San Francisco. To use the route via Melbourne and Pt de Galle NSW had to pay a fee to Victoria based on the amount of letters sent by that route. In order to defray that expense, and also to discourage NSW writers from using the route, a 1d surcharge was added to the basic rate (6d via Southampton, and 9d via Brindisi) from 10 FEB 1874 to 27 MAY 1875. This surcharge is commonly called the \"Galle Penny\". £300 |
