Title: 1960s Australia Tasmania Cataract Gorge South Esk River Launceston Postcard

Front description:
This is a single tear-out postcard from a Plastichrome souvenir album folder — a stapled booklet of perforated postcards designed to be detached and mailed individually. The image is a view of the entrance to Cataract Gorge on the South Esk River at Launceston, Tasmania. In the foreground a timber jetty extends over shallow water, with a rowing boat drawn up on the sandy foreshore and small yachts and dinghies moored nearby. A cluster of masts, one flying a flag and strung with signal flags, rises at left near the steep tree-covered cliffs of the gorge. Spanning the river in the middle distance is the arched Kings Bridge, with a boat shed or clubhouse on stilts to the right. Beyond, wooded hillsides rise steeply, dotted with houses and villas with red roofs set among the trees, under a blue sky with light cloud. No printed text appears on the image.

Note: Coins & Banknotes Grading
  • Please
    closely inspect the photos to understand the condition of the coins or
    banknotes before proceeding with your purchase, as grading can be
    subjective and varies from person to person.
  • Please do not place too much hope on grading companies to grade the notes accurately, as they can be notoriously inconsistent.
  • Different graders have different opinions, eye factors, and knowledge that influence the final grading.
  • Even grading companies do not guarantee that you will get the outcome of your desired grading.
  • If
    you have any questions or require additional information, I am more
    than happy to assist. Please feel free to contact me anytime.

Shipping Information

  • Combined Shipping:
    We offer combined shipping for all banknotes. To take advantage of this
    offer, please add the items to your cart together and only proceed to
    checkout once you are ready to pay. The combined shipping is calculated
    at the checkout page. Please do not pay for items individually, as the
    shipping costs will not be combined that way.
  • Customs, Duty, Tariff Fees: Buyers are responsible for any applicable customs, duty or tariff fees.
  • International Shipping:
    Shipping duration can vary, typically ranging from 14 to 60 business
    days for standard delivery. Please be aware that these shipping times
    are estimates and depend on the operational efficiencies of the shipping
    companies, which we cannot control.
  • Postage Costs:
    Please note that international shipping via Australia Post is not
    cheap. We strive to keep the shipping costs as low as possible,
    sometimes even absorbing a portion of the costs. All orders are sent
    with end-to-end tracking for safety and reliability.
  • Untracked Shipping Requests:
    If a buyer insists on requesting an untracked, cheaper shipping option,
    we reserve the right to grant or refuse the request. If untracked
    shipping is granted, please be aware that we have no way of tracking the
    mail, and the buyer is strictly responsible for any losses in transit.
  • Tracking and Logistics:
    Please check Australia Post for tracking status. Since we do not own
    Australia Post, we have absolutely no control over their handling times
    and methods. Australia is a huge continent, and logistics are
    challenging, coupled with one of the highest minimum wages in the world,
    making costs and operations tough. Please check with your postal
    service or local post offices if any unattended mail notes are left, as
    we absolutely can’t control that remotely.

Customer Conduct

  • Please be respectful when communicating with us. We do not tolerate abusive behaviour from buyers.
  • If you do not agree with the postage cost or any other terms, please refrain from making a purchase.
