1902-04 Completed Base 2d Emerald Perf 11½,12 x 11 used in combination with a New South Wales 1d Postage Due (indelible pencil mss cancellations) on 1903 (11 Jun) picture postcard from Barnsley (UK) to North Sydney with 1d KEVII. Treated as a letter due to writing on the address side, and taxed at double the 1½d deficiency, with hexagonal framed 'T/15' applied in London and handstruck '3d' added on arrival. Very fine and a rare example of the combination use of Australian and New South Wales Postage Dues.
