1917 censored ½d post card to Keetmanshoop with a good strike of the violet rubber NARUBIS 13 OCT 1917 datestamp. Narubis was a postal agency on Farm 57 in the Keetmanshoop district, that opened in 1916 and closed on 27 May 1919. It reopened again in 1922, but no postmarks are known between the end of 1917 and 1931. Putzel states that ????ood strikes are very difficult to find?. This would definitely be classified as a good strike! Fine.
