Bas has written in an email rather than in the Forum: Another nice card. Bolo is about 25 km NE of Stutterheim, and about 60 km N of East London.  PA opened on 1882, and was a PO and renamed BOLO RESERVE in 1892;  it was still open in the 1980s when Putzel was producing his Encyclopedia.  Your postmark is BOLO Put 1, which was still in use in 1910, presumably at the renamed office.
