418 *F 1868 First Royal Visit (10 Feb) use of Government House, Sydney, envelope (embossed on flap), addressed in hand of H.R.H.Prince Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh, second son of Victoria and Albert, to Richard Hengist Horne (nom de plume of poet, RichardHenry Horne), warden of Blue Mountain Goldfield, Trentham, Victoria, bearing Diadem 6d tied by Sydney duplex. Horne hadcelebrated with a cantata, Galatea Secunda, the arrival in the Colonies of the Prince. An endorsement, “From Prince Alfred”,possibly in Horne’s hand, appears on reverse of cover. Four weeks after this item was posted, during this first Royal Visit to theColonies, and whilst attending a picnic at Clontarf, the Prince was shot at close range, the bullet entering about two inches toright of his spine. A team of six nurses, trained by Florence Nightingale, attended upon the Prince, who recovered from theincident within a fortnight. This was Australia’s first conventional assassination attempt. Accompanying are photocopies ofbiographies and photographs of the Prince, and Horne, and reproduction of cabinet photo of Prince late in life, signed and withhandwritten details.[Aside from the importance of this item historically, and its particular desirability to Royal Visit specialists, there is considerablephilatelic significance attached. Prince Alfred was one of the early philatelists in the Royal Family; he was elected honorarypresident of The Philatelic Society, London, in 1890. This is believed to have inspired his nephew, George, later King GeorgeV, who benefited from the sale by Alfred of his collection to his brother, the Prince of Wales (later King Edward VII). This mergingof collections gave birth to the Royal Philatelic Collection.] $3,000

419 * 1882 (May 20) envelope (very minor blemishes) to London inscribed per “Carthage” and Via Brindisi, with 8d yellow perf 10 SG#218a tied Sydney/ NSW duplex’ with arrival backstamp small single ring cds ‘LONDON W./A F/ JY3/ 82’. Very nice. $300

420 * 1903 (Sep 1) envelope with few blemishes from Sydney to Lord Howe Is with NSW 2d blue tied Sydney duplex, arrivalbackstamp ‘LORD HOWE ISLAND/ SP4/ 1903/N.S.W’. Believed to be the earliest surviving cover to the island. [Appears to havebeen carried folded vertically which, in the typical humidity of the island, has given an offset outline of the stamp on the oppositeside of the front. This in no way detracts from a seriously scarce cover.] $450

421 * 1904 (Jan 5) printed envelope to France with scarce franking of 1/- Roo plus QV ½d paying 2½d per ½oz letter rate x5, endorsedper “Orient Co RMS Ophir”, sealed with a part of a printed ‘LOUIS GILLE & CO/ Australian General Catholic Depot/...’ label, partof the backflap & sealing label are missing. $80
