Commonwealth Postal Cards. Melbourne, This Day.
The Victorian issue of Commonwealth postal cards has proved a great success, no fewer than 250,000 in all six colonies being now in circulation, The department intends to continue to print the cards so long as the public demand warrants. With regard to the £1 and £5 series of slightly post-marked Victorian stamps the, supply is very low, and no more will be printed. Victoria (says the Ago) is the only colony which has gratified philatelists by substituting a light post-mark for the objectional wood “ specimen, ” an order to prevent the special sets now on sale getting into circulation before June 80.
