Item Description
1887 Australia New Hebrides Company Port Vila Private Local Post 1 Penny Unused HR. The Australasian New Hebrides Company was organized in 1887, it provided shipping and other services - including mail delivery - on steamers running between Australia and the New Hebrides at intervals of about three weeks. This provided a convenient mail service to almost sixty islands in the grouping, including Tonga. Unfortunately, this service proved to be unprofitable and the company closed down in 1899, when it entered into a contract with the Australian Post Office.Seller Information
