Description:

1900 plain wrapper to "JP McGlinn/Adjutant & Quartermaster/New South Wales Mounted Infantry/South Africa" with 1d Arms tied by Newcastle cds, minor soiling. Rare inwards item. [Mail TO war zones is always much scarcer than mail from the conflict. It is all the more remarkable that a humble wrapper should have survived. In fact, this is the only such item from Australia to the Boer War that we have seen]
