The Christmas Island (Pacific) Local Stamps and Postal History

bild

Christmas Island - Central Pacific Cocoanut Plantations Ltd. Locals:
Cacheted covers with the big palm cachet.

13 June 2022 : 155 covers.

Please don't be astonished when you read here at the bottom of the cachet: "Operated by Central Pacific Cocoanut Plantations Ltd, London" or at other places even "...... London, Paris". This sly fox Rougier named two accumulations of huts on Christmas Island "London" and "Paris".
But the company was indeed registered in London.

Visitez cancel in 1932
(new Apr 2018)

This is how the "VISITEZ" cancel looked when it was rather new and correctly applied

Cachet #3

Big palm cachet cover - Colgrove. Cancelled Papeete on 22 April 1935 with the "Perle" slogan postmark.
The year is not clear on the C.I. cancel but with the date of the Tahiti cancel it could be 1935(?). This one has a cachet with the berries in the holly, slightly out of alignment.

This is a rather awkward cover: Adress in blue, C.I. cancel upright DEC 25 ????, Tahiti "VISITEZ" cancel not clearly readable 29 (or 9 or 19) - 3 - 36.
All DEC 25 1934 have the C.I. cancel upside down on the lower part of the local stamp. All addresses are in black.
So this could be DEC 25 1935 but we have not registered any DEC 35 Big Palm cachet cover so far.

Big palm cachet cover
With a "voir Tahiti et y vivre" papeete postmark toNew York.
This is the only 28 May cover we have seen so far which is cancelled Papeete (15-6(?)-36) and not on Makura.

bild

Extraordinary #2: This is the only Big Palm Cachet cover we have seen without a valid postmark - no Papeete, no Makura or other one. The first impression might be that it never saw postal service but it has a Saint-Yorre arrival (? date illegible) backstamp.
I think that this is a cover sent to Paul Emmanuel Rougier, the nephew of Father Rougier who inherited Christmas Island and brother of the two nieces of Father Rougier - Jeanne Louise Berthe Rougier de Rochegonde and Louise Marie Alice Rougier de Rochegonde - who were on Christmas Island in the first years. (Please see the addresses of the local cover in 1918).
As the handwriting seems to be from a woman the cover may have been sent by Paul's wife in Papeete to him in Sanit-Yorre, were he married his wife Simone Louise Madelaine Corre on 10 February 1931. Maybe he was there on a visit of his parents in law.
There is another cover of the same kind and the same addressee in the 25 December series below.
