BANK OF NEW SOUTH WALES, specimen one pound, Sydney 187- by Bradbury Wilkinson, specimen overprint in ink (see Sale 36, lot 2694). Four pin holes, otherwise good extremely fine and very rare.
Charles Skipper & East of London printed most post-1860 issues for the Bank of New South Wales, however around 1887 some forgeries appeared and rival printer Bradbury Wilkinson & Co., submitted some examples of their work for the Bank's consideration. Although never used these colour proofs later became the basis of the design for the issue accepted by the Bank of Victoria circa 1890.
