Description

1941(Sep 25) Plain envelope by airmail to Bridport from 915644 Cpl Bailey H.R. bearing GV1 1/- tied FPO 475 cds & unusually with losenge Crown / Passed / P.67 h/s (CCSG H2D or CCSG Med book under Gib CCSG F4) in blue with Authorising signature ……………………………………It is unclear why this UK civil censor device has been used on military mail from Gibraltar, perhaps it was handed into Censorship as the writer was away from his normal military location at the time & this is one of only two examples that I have seen both used in 1941 although the CCSG record 4 & 3 are listed on page 28 CCSG Mediterranean Sea & Middle East
