[Comes with grubby unused 1905 PPC commemorating 50th anniv of 5d Courbould.] (2) A1868 First Royal Visit (10 Feb) use of Government House, Sydney, envelope (embossed on flap), addressed in hand of 699P *F H.R.H. Prince Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh, second son of Victoria and Albert, to Richard Hengist Horne (nom de plume of poet, Richard Henry Horne), warden of Blue Mountain Goldfield, Trentham, Victoria, bearing Diadem 6d tied by Sydney duplex. Horne had celebrated with a cantata, Galatea Secunda, the arrival in the Colonies of the Prince. An endorsement, “From Prince Alfred”, possibly in Horne’s hand, appears on reverse of cover. Four weeks after this item was posted, during this first Royal Visit to the Colonies, and whilst attending a picnic at Clontarf, the Prince was shot at close range, the bullet entering about two inches to right of his spine. A team of six nurses, trained by Florence Nightingale, attended upon the Prince, who recovered from the incident within a fortnight. This was Australia’s first conventional assassination attempt.

Accompanying are photocopies of biographies and photographs of the Prince, and Horne, and reproduction of cabinet photo of Prince late in life, signed and with handwritten details.

[Aside from the importance of this item historically, and its particular desirability to Royal Visit specialists, there is considerable philatelic significance attached. Prince Alfred was one of the early philatelists in the Royal Family; he was elected honorary president of The Philatelic Society, London, in 1890. This is believed to have inspired his nephew, George, later King George V, who benefited from the sale by Alfred of his collection to his brother, the Prince of Wales (later King Edward VII). This merging of collections gave birth to the Royal Philatelic Collection.]
