With all due respect, we are not magicians :) To identify a perfin, one needs A close up of the stamp, Front and rear of the cover/card if avail. One needs all the information possible.
Yours is I would say, a commercial perfin in 1922 on some sort of cheap business card (eg: please be advised your lay-by is ready etc) Going to Aldgate (Old gate) in the adelaide hills, If I were to have a ridiculous stab at it, I would say maybe HS (Harris Scarfe & co) A large retailer at the time. Otherwise near impossible with your scan.
On further research, Mr. Bagot of Aldgate was a famous Australian Architect, that perfin hence may have come from any number of firms / businesses etc. http://www.architectsdatabase.unisa...sp?Arch_ID=7
Thanks for the information. THe stamp is on a very fine envelope. It is amazing what I am finding in the accumulation. I am not surprised what turns up. I found two more stock books in another carton, so they will also be added to the accumulation. I do not know how long it will take to sort. I am still confused about all the KGV stamps, the colours, the perforations etc. I need to be very careful and get some expert advice. Regards, Horamakhet
This is a web site for perfins on King George V Silver Jubilee (1935) stamps from around the world. Not the same era as your stamp and perfin but I thought perhaps some larger companies would still be in existance at this time. http://www.philatel2.com/jubilee/id213.htm
I like the star-shaped pentagram ornaments in the cancels.
