Description: This is a Barbados On His Majesty's Service Cover from 1893. It was sent locally in Barbados on 2/24/1893. One thing to note with this one is that it was sent during a shortage of the Barbados 1/2d Postage stamp. As such, the BLACK CROWN CIRCLE BARBADOS Marking was used in lieu of postage stamps. There is a CDS dated 2/24/1893, along with a BLACK OVAL CROWN CANCEL. There is a trace of another CDS on the back, but it is unreadable.
