| Abstract: | This interesting cover from Curacao to Malta left Curacao on the 27th June 1932 arriving in Liverpool on the 15th July. It was registered having a red Curacao / Willemstad Registration label - Boxed black AR and a manuscript in the same hand writing of that for the address panel "per first mail." It bears also in a different hand writing "avec AR." There are three, 15c postage stamps cancelled by the double ring CURACO / 27.6.32 / WILLEMSTAD. It also bears the registered 15 July 1932 Liverpool marking. However there is no Malta arrival hand stamp. [excerpt] |
