Postally VFU with 'Launceston MR 22 94' duplex pmk, endorsed 'Book Only' & signed by W Petterd, to Adelaide. (In November 1882 the new Stamp Duties act made both embossed & adhesive stamps valid for all purposes. This meant that in addition to the St George & Dragon, & small Platypus adhesive stamp duty issues, the large Platypus embossed Stamp Duty designs were also officially authorised for postal use, although that might not have been the intention of the postal authorities. Thus the Platypus embossed issues could be legally used on postal articles, & examples of the 1d, 2d & 6d values are known, only several of each recorded used, although their creation & usage is somewhat shrouded in mystery). We last sold a 2d with edge flts for $1865 in 2017. 2024 Ceremuga AIEP photo-cert. (P)AVAILABLE at A$1100
