Here's the earlier 5 digit system, which also appears to have been issued in blocks. Like Australia it may have been preceded by a 4 digit pre-war system. I find it quite revealing that 4 digits was initially considered sufficient for Australia, but of course as the last pics show we were still emerging from the horse drawn era.
