1943 censored envelope to Cyprus franked with three 5 Mils machine
cancels with a JERUSALEM datestamp at the upper left. The cover was
opened and resealed by the censor with tape at the left. It arrived
at Nicosia on 30 June and Famagusta 1 July. The envelope was then
sent back to Palestine with a 2p stamp affixed to the front over
the original address and cancelled FAMAGUSTA 9 JUL 43. It was
resealed again with more tape added at the left, so presumably
censored again. A very fine and unusual returned cover
