Post Office Circular. Monday, August 23, 1875, 1875 folio broadsheet, includes an announcement regarding Homeward Australian Mails: 'The Australian Mails via Brindisi, due in London on Monday the 30th August, having missed the junction with the proper Packet at Point de Galle, will be a fortnight late. They may be expected in London on Monday, 13th September', original horizontal fold, in fine condition. A good illustration of the vagaries of the Colonial postal service in the nineteenth century.
