2025 August 15 registered cover from Reykjavik to the U.S., with a 1900 kroner post office meter label. In addition to the official postal meter paying the postage, there is an official post office "integrated" CN22 customs form that also serves as the address label. Envelope measures 225 x 160 mm; there are no markings of any sort on the backside. Even though Icelandic stamps were and are still valid for postage (they are just not issuing new stamps), most mail leaving the country that requires a customs form, such as this item, does not bear stamps. However, very few such non-stamped envelopes tend to survive, thus this represents a category of postal history which will likely to be quite scarce in coming years. [The image on the website has had the address blurred for privacy, however the item is in "perfect" condition.] ACTUAL item. |
