Posted : Feb 13, 1940 or 41
Route : The route is uncertain. If 1941, the cover was carried by Pan Am FAM 19 to New Zealand. If 1940, then possibly by some British air service operating in the area.
Notes : The year date is uncertain. It is either 1940 or 1941. The return address on the back is A.R. Williams, c/o PAA, Canton Island, South Pacific.
It is possible that this cover was sent by one of Pan Am's work force stationed on Canton Island. It was postmarked at the British Post Office, G & E Island.
My guess is that the year is 1940, and the Canton Island base is being built, but has not opened yet.
