Hong Kong Type AA2 edit

Neopost 1930s Model edit

Neopost machines weren't given a specific name so the 1930s model, like previous versions, was initially marketed simply as "The Neopost". The machines used in Hong Kong could print six values.
3 machines are known, numbered N2 to N4. An essay was produced for N1 but was in a considerably different design - this was possibly only a 3-value machine.
