Does anyone have any of the Pictorial lettercards to sell?

I have the Tinsley type D specimen overprint on Great Lake and River Derwent cards and am waiting delivery on a mint Great Lake H&G A2. 3 out of many.

I'm hoping someone finished collecting the area can help me avoid years of searching!

Do you collect mint or used lettercards or both?

P.S. Point of Order :): the correct attribution for SPECIMEN overprints should be "Butler Type D" and not Tinsley who did write the chapter nor create the classifications. Similarly, in regard to postal stationery and the classification provided in Chapter XV of Tinsley, any attribution should always be to Ingles and again, not to Tinsley.

Point of order noted, Ross.

Mint, used, CTO, Specimen is what I am looking for.

I have acquired four of the six specimen cards but still need Entrance Island, Macquarie Harbour (LC 2.1.2) and Launceston (LC 2.1.5).

I'm keen to complete this set and would appreciate any help of guidance as to whre i may find these cards.
