1940 $1 Chateau de Ramezay Single Franking Registered and Censored Cover, mailed Ottawa Station B on OCT.29.1940 and addressed to Canton, China. The cover was mailed air mail registered and the $1 franking paid for 90c to China and 10c for the AR service (evidence of an AR card having been stuck to back). The cover has a censor tape and a wealth of different postmarks on front and back including "Passed For Export" handstamp alongside a purple AR in circle, an orange "SF" (San Francisco), a purple Registration c.d.s. applied in China (NOV.1), Chewk Hon (DEC.15), Chik Shui (DEC.15), Chewk Hon (re-direction on DEC.16), Shui Kai (receiver on DEC.22). "Insufficient Address" and "Retour" handstamps, then returned to Vancouver (FEB.4.1941), DLO with Inspection Division handstamp on FEB.11.1941. Very fine and would be of interest to many different collectors. (Image)
