1893 ½d reply paid card (H & G 3) locally used to Isandhlwana, with a very fine strike of the very rare NONDWENI, ZULULAND 11 JUN 93 purple oval datestamp, which also cancels the reply half of the card. The message asks when the sender can meet Mr Lurring, the recipient of the card, in Vryheid. Although there are a few slight traces of foxing, this is probably the finest of the very few known used examples of this card. An item of major importance, Ex Wilson Wong and John Robson collections where it sold for £2860 in 1992. A B.P.A. 1999 certificate accompanies the card.
