This is my first stamped postcard from Australia. Received today. I've got a few before but were unwritten, in an envelope. This is a MaxiCard that shows a 1924 letter with King George V stamp. From 1914 to 1937 this was the basic letter postage stamp (with color variation). During this period of time 11,800,000,000 stamps were produced. Together with the King’s profile, the stamp design also featured a kangaroo, emu, sprig of wattle and the crown. The first day of issue postmark shows the King's symbols and the date:17 June 2014.
There are other 3 postcards with vintage postal themes in this series.
On the back there is a pre-paid mark as seen in image above.
Thank You, Agnieszka !
