South Africa 1934 Union Castle Line Letter Multiple Re-Direction

1934 UNION-CASTLE LINE MAIL: Interesting incoming cover from England to Cape Town addressed ".../2nd Class Passenger/R.M.S. Arundel Castle / To the Union Castle Mail Steamship Co Ltd..." with reverse showing written instruction "If sailed kindly return to..." The cover reflects a remarkable effort by the Shipping Line to effect delivery of the letter. Apart from written notes and marks, the envelope shows instructional handstamps and dated handstamps of three additional vessels until finally the acceptance "RETURN TO SENDER". A great addition of Union Castle Line mail.
