1902 Registered cover from Nairobi, addressed in Indian script to Dar-Es-Salaam, redirected to Majunga in Madagascar, but unknown and returned to the sender, franked 2a + 2½a on the reverse. Transit datestamps of Mombasa, Zanzibar, Dar-Es-Salaam, Majunga and Zanzibar (French P.O) with scarce boxed "UNDELIVERED FOR REASONS / STATED ON COVER" (Proud I2 of Mombasa). Vertical central fold, light staining and small part reverse missing but very scarce, probably sent by an Indian worker on the Uganda Railway, just one example of the boxed "undelivered" cachet recorded by Proud.
