Brisbane Datestamp Page

Type 1 An unframed circle 24 mm in diameter, with 'BRISBANE' round the top, 'QUEENSLAND' at the foot separated by two curved bars at each side. The date is in two lines in the centre; month and day in the first line, and year in four figures in the second line.

This is the earliest date stamp 'QUEENSLAND' at the foot used in the Queensland period. There was more then one implement used but the differences are minimal. These include the outer right hand side bar being 4 or 5 mm and a slight difference in the top of the numeral 6 in the date. Examples are also known with date errors such as the wrong year or the year inverted. Because it was used as a back stamp / transit stamp it is not usually found on postage stamps. The dates range from 30 April 1860 to 24 April 1865. Rated Rare
