  INWARDS INTER-COLONIAL MAIL: 1887 cover from NSW to "C.H. Granlund/Exhibition Buildings/Adelaide"

• Notes:
  The Express marking is intriguing. It's not just the desire of the sender that delivery be expedited; the numeral "56" has been added in a different hand & a separate operation, suggesting acceptance by some form of (private?) enhanced service, for which any fee must have been paid in cash.
