MOLE CREEK / -1OC02 / TAS 7304 .... very few Tasmanian steel datestamps
were used for so long after the introduction of neoprene faced datestamps
in the early 1990s.

PAID AT ST HELENS / 17JA 2002 / TAS-AUST

N.B. although the second digit in the "year" is indistinct I'll call it a zero.
I think this is the only "TAS-AUST" steel datestamp that I have seen with
the year in full!

Tenalga MSS. Appears to be ? 13 5 ?? As the Avery and Hardinge ERD is June '17, and I am confident that the month at least on this example is 5( its clearer on the original than the scan), then its most likely ? May 13

KAWALLAH was renamed NEWSTEAD, effective from February 1st 1961. These datestamp impressions
are on a sequence of four covers (each signed by the postmaster whose name was Freeburgh). I have just described these
for my next internet auction and have assumed that this is the only 'set' seen to date as it provides a new late date
for KAWALLAH (Jan 31st 1961) and a new early date for the first NEWSTEAD Type 5s (March 18th 1961). The first
and last days of use of the Type 5 RELIEF No.6 datestamp neatly ties up the name change as well as the withdrawal and introduction
of datestamps ......such 'changeover covers' are not often seen.
