After visiting the Stamp and Coin Expo at Hurstville (will be going back tomorrow to take a video and photos), I bought a few interesting stamps for my collection, which I will be uploading, the first is a full pane of ½d kangaroos, the bottom variety is a late state of plate crack travelling through the W.C.G. McCracken imprint.

The full pane with the late state of plate crack crossing the middle of the McCracken imprint is very scarce and is seldom seen on the market, as these plate cracks are normally only seen in blocks of 4.

Hi Horamakhet

This sheet was no easy task, it's was quite a find to acquire an actual sheet belonging to a major cracked plate, there are three other varieties on the sheet, but didn't have time to show them, when I have the time very soon I'll show the varieties.

I also bought a BCOF FDC in pristine condition with 7 of the BCOF stamps on it, with a back stamp; only a handful was ever issued, many of the envelopes were damaged when hastily opened, and to find an FDC in pristine condition made my day.

The cover was not at the Expo but it will be sent to me.
