207 [1939 45 aur Geyser] (VF) on 28 June 1940 cover British censored (PC 90) cover addressed to the Seine-Inférieure (since 1954 known as Seine-Maritime) department of France. The letter did reach France, but received a 3-line violet handstamp "RETOUR A LENVOYEUR / RELATIONS POSTALES / INTERROMPUES" indicating that postal service was interrupted (due to the war). Somewhat worn at top, but inconsequential due to the rarity. This handstamp is occasionally found on letters from the U.S. to France, but is rare from other countries and extremely rare from Iceland (in 34 years I have not had another example). ACTUAL item. |
