Aerial Mail - registered Western Australia to England via ship markings - 1929
Can someone explain what the "late fee added" notation at upper left means? It obviously didn't work as per the note at lower right it was received too late to connect with the RMS Mongolia. Or was the late fee added at the port ?
Would it have gone out on the next ship? On the back there is a "Registered Perth" CDS even though the registration label is from Broome.
Would love to know how the rate was figured - it must be a rather unique rate...
Thanks for any light that can be shed - I don't really know where to start .
