PRINTED MATTER RATE MAIL TO ITALY & GERMANY - 'SARAWAK GAZETTE' WRAPPERS; 2 June 1903(?) front with printed address & "The Sarawak Gazette Office" heading to Wiesbaden with 2c Green tied by partly fine "KUCHING" cds; plus matching 8 Jan. 1912 complete wrapper with the same printed heading (printed address in Bologna) with 2c Green tied by partly fine "KUCHING" cds with matching cds on the front. Rare examples of the 2c printed matter (up to 4oz) rate; most of the stamps on these wrappers were applied partly across the contents and so their stamps were damaged/destroyed.
