1931 Australia to England First Official Airmail Registered Cover addressed to Scotland. Unusually undelivered with purple Return to Sender cachet & then opened by Censor before having "DEAD LETTER OFFICE" postmark applied 4 months after flight! As expected after such a journey, a little worn, stained with small tear. Flight cachet in purple, Dundee cancels on reverse & a Perth Reg label. Unusual.
