1894 2d registered envelope to RAROTONGA, COOK ISLANDS, with a 4½d, 3d and 10d added to pay the postage (paying a 7 times letter rate at 2½d per ½oz – so between 3½ and 4 oz) The stamps have been cancelled SHEPHERDS BUSH MY 11 94. An Auckland 21 JU 94 transit cancel is on the back. A few cover faults, to be expected on a letter of over 3½oz, but a very uncommon rate to a scarce destination.
