[AUSTRALIAN MAILS] Post Office Circular. Monday, August 23, 1875

[s.l.] : [s.n.], 1875. Folio broadsheet, printed on both sides; 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.
