AB3139
STELLALAND 1884 1d red (Holmes Type 6). Unobtrusive 6mm tear at left, otherwise fine used with manuscript cancellation reading ‘A.V. Riet / P.M’ (Postmaster). SG 1
 
Note: the list of names of the postmasters of Stellaland appears incomplete. Those recorded include: Dekker, Hartzenburg, Eaton and Dennison. There was a Mr J. B. van Riet who was a member of the Bestuur and it is probable ‘A van Riet’ was a relative who, for a short time, served as postmaster. Rare.
