The Postal History Of British New Guinea And Papua, 1885-1942

Plot

"Interest in early Papuan postal history has the added romance of the pioneering years which came in the latter part of the 19th century when many other colonial territories were already much further developed with more organised postal services. Even so, there are later gems of postal history, not least some of the re-directional marking and lesser-used rubber handstamps of the 1930s."--Back cover.
