Printed to Private Order (PTPO) Envelopes - post 1912

#1 Post by Ross Ewington » Tue Jan 10, 2012 10:36 am

This PTPO envelope (1d KGV with star indicium for The Farmers' Co-operative Auctioneers Ltd, Burnie) was sold recently (January 2012) on eBay.
I have only seen a couple of other examples, both in poor condition, so the price realised of AU$59 was a "good win" for the buyer in my opinion.

If you have examples of post 1912 PTPO stationery used by Tasmanian firms, etc., please post them in this topic.
