1941, SYS $6.80 franking tied "HANKOW 19.7.41" to registered air mail cover to Toulon/France (unoccupied/Vichy government) sent by China clipper via Hong Kong, transits "SHANGHAI 20.7.41", Hong Kong blue "AIR TRANSIT 3" (for clipper mails only, scarce number) plus boxed "3" on reverse, "HONOLULU HAWAII AUG 16 1941 REGISTERED", "NEW YORK 8 19 1941" and arrival "TOULON 5 9 41". British censor tape. Boxed senders "Bank of Indochina / 18 Jul 1941 / Hankow Agency". An attractive and rare clipper cover. We sold in our 26th sale (2013 lot 1191) a less spectacular "AIR TRANSIT 3" cover (unregistered and for this reason not showing our various transit postmarks) from Chengting (14.10.1941) to France for 2600 EURO + fees.
