1946, Nov 28. Airmail envelope from Melbourne to a member of the British Military Administration of the Dodecanese at Rhodes, bearing 1946 1s. tied by ´´Collins Street/Melbourne´´ cds, insufficiently franked and consequently charged on arrival with postage due 1s., tied by British ´´Rhodes/Dodecanese´´ cds. To our knowledge, this is the only cover recorded in the Dodecanese exhibiting the highest denomination of the postage due issue. Undoubtedly one of the most important items of the British occupations of Italian dominions. Cert. Sirotti. Sa. 5.
