A confusing cover
Posted: Wed Sep 08, 2010 7:00 pm
Dear All,
The attached cover has a block of four stamps that went on sale in Britain on the 13th of May, 1937, but it appears to be cancelled in Delaware, USA, on the 14th of May - and bears the cachet, "Returned for postage". The actual stamps are not directly cancelled, but the pointed ovaloid mark looks as if it has been positioned very carefully.
Has anybody an idea of what this cover actually represents, please?
Thanks a million for any input.
