SOUTHERN AFRICA 1931 covers to Southern Africa
SOUTHERN AFRICA 1931 covers to Southern Africa, special envelopes were printed for mail from England to Africa. The one cover from Amsterdam to Cape Town cancelled 26.FEB.1931 has the map of Africa and overprinting 'By Imperial Airways, First Air Mail, England - Africa.' The second cover from Norwich, England, to Windhoek has a similar map but the printing leaves out England - Africa. Possibly a trial printing of this envelope, but extremely rare.
