Also on the front a boxed R MYTILINI GR NO black registration mark and a boxed ΕΝΑΕΡΙΩΣ PAR AVION Airmail mark. As the recipient was not found, his name and address in Morocco were crossed out and two boxed postal marks were applied on the front INCONNU (Unknown) and RETOUR A L'ENVOYEUR (Return to Sender). On the back we have several postal marks including a Moroccan date stamp, a reddish boxed Inconnu a l'appel des Facteurs de Meknes Le Facteur Chef (unknown to the calling of the Meknes clerks, Chief Clerk), and a handwritten Afranc.

Cover was returned to Greece via ΠΕΙΡΑΙΕΥΣ 31 Χ 46 ΑΦΙΞΙΣ ΣΥΣΤΗΜΕΝΑ, forwarded to Mytilene (4 Nov. 46 arrival) and to the original sender of the cover in a small village about 16 miles away as indicated both by the sender's handwritten address and a partial ΠΑΠΑΔΟΥ or ΠΑΠΑΔΟΣ 5 ΧΙ 46 circular date stamp. A very interesting to/from piece of postal history.
