Two 1942 covers to the US, one with a rare censorship mark
A common usage: the 1 peso with a 15c small format cattle stamp (15cSC). The first cover has a very rare small censorhip mark, not quite noticeable, lower left over the company logo 'Suchard.'
Two 1942 covers to the US used with commemoratives
The first letter has a note for the censor, "written in Spanish."
Two 1942 covers to Europe
The first cover is to France via Natal, South Africa. It was sent to Vence, North of Nice. The cover not having any censorship markings may indicate that it did not travel via any routes monitored by Germany, England, or the United States. During years when almost all covers were censored, the uncensored cover is the most interesting one.
