The cover below was from Newton Abbot in Devon to Poona, India in September 1940 and was sent airmail, but was apparently diverted to a Convoy leaving from Bristol with the Air Mail etiquette crossed out and a straight line "BRISTOL" cancel applied.
The envelope below, sent in October 1945, from Bristol to APO 595, was deemed undeliverable and returned to Bristol having gone via Boston, Massachusetts in the USA.
And for a little diversion, here are a couple of security overprints on receipts from J.S. Fry & Sons Ltd, the bottom one dated to May 1940 (the date on the top receipt is unclear).
