I have received the following enquiry:
[color=maroon]I have eventually acquired an example of the purple POW CAMP/No.64/GREAT BRITAIN rubber used
at the Castlerankine Camp, Denny in WWII.
This one is a postal card written on 24th October 1943 by an Italian POW to family in Italy. I assume the censor marks were
struck in Italy but I cannot make out all the letters above the black Officio Censura – is it A TT C?
A purple Klussendorf date-stamp was struck on receipt with date 19th February 1944. Did it normally take so long to travel
from UK to Italy?[/color]
I think the initials are A.M.G. for Allied Military Government ?
Thanks, Mike :)
Mike,
First try is often the best. It is AMG, a normal handstamp/cachet found on this type of POW mail.
