Jamaica Registration: Mailed Out Of Course

Mailed Out Of Course mark, Mandeville.
2 examples known, 1929 to 1941.
This mark in violet or black was used only at Mandeville, the
only office with a distinctive Mailed Out Of Course handstamp.
It is similar to a Too Late mark also used only at Mandeville.
Unrecorded in Lant’s list or in Proud, these covers are the only two known strikes. The 1929 cover is
the discovery example, reported by Lant in his Jamaica Jottings in the BCPSJ in 1983.

Mailed Out Of Course cover from Old England via Mandeville to Great Britain, 1929.
This may have been a philatelic cover to send neatly franked examples of the 1½d, issued on 18 January.

postage 3½d and
registration 2d = 5½d).
