A rather attractive Beresford Series postcard entitled Jersey Old – Farm House Mont-au-Prêtre was acquired at the London 2022 International Stamp Exhibition by my Postage Due Mail Study Group colleague Michael Furfie.
The card was sent from Jersey on 26th April 1904 to Vienna in Austria. As usual at that time, underpaid mail from the Channel Islands going abroad was routed via London, hence the hexagonal T / 15 / L London taxe mark. A divided back card, it was liable to letter rate, so the deficiency was 1½d = 15 centimes, due 30 centimes = 30 heller.
I am grateful to Michael for permitting me to scan the card and share it with C.I.S.S. members.
