1940 Censored Whaling cover to Norway. Datestamped on arrival in Norway at Bergen 27.2.40, sent by E. Edvardtsen, a South Georgia whaler working on FF„VESTFOLD“ (her last whaling season) to his wife.

FF „VESTFOLD“ worked pelagically for her last season in the South Atlantic between longitude 0° and westward towards South Georgia/South Shetlands with some expedition mail taken to Bergen, bypassing Grytviken, perhaps by a returning tanker transporting refined whale oil.
