Description

1921-33 Script CA $25 purple and blue on blue, used vertical block of ten tied on parcel fragment by SINGAPORE/24.JA.35 cds, some usual small perf. defects expected on such a large block, possibly the largest used multiple, exhibition showpiece.

Note: "The backing paper appears to be from an airmail envelope with a remnant of a Chinese newspaper, possibly used as wrapper.

“Clubbed mail” was common practice in those days with a lot of Chinese working abroad. The post office later banned this practice since it was cheating revenue; instead of posting several letters, letters were sent to an agency for distribution."

Catalogue ref: S.G. 240b
