1944, 20.3., Christian X. 2kr., two singles and 20ø tied by cds. "KØBENHAVN 20.3.44" to airmail letter via New York to Faroe Islands. Censored in the USA and detained by the censorship, with two-line cancel "THIS ARTICLE HAS BEEN HELD BY THE OFFICE OF CENSORSHIP" alongside. It seems this was a business letter, since it is addressed to a bank. It was only allowed to send private letters. The cover was released on 4. November 1945, after which the letter was returned to the sender. Opened out for display, part of back missing, heavy adhesives tapes around, a very rare and interesting cover
