Jamaica Telegraph.
Stamped telegraph despatch form, 9d, 1929.
The War Tax expired in 1926, but the
higher charge of 9d continued as the
regular rate. The issue of a 9d
postage and revenue stamp in 1929
offered the opportunity to print a 9d
form using the 9d die.
This was the last type of stamped
telegraph despatch form. Swarbrick
records that 1,200 were printed.
Ex Swarbrick.
