This cover looked somewhat interesting. Thought I will post it here to get some opinion. All inputs and feed back most appreciated. Thanks.

Nice and busy. Lots of markings.

I wonder if a stamp or two might be missing from the bottom right?

It doesn't look to me like a purely commercial cover, not that there is anything wrong with that. But I don't know anything about Cuban covers of this era. Thanks for sharing it.

"Canje Filatelico" on the reverse means "Stamp Exchange," in this case the officially-sanctioned government-controlled exchange, similar to what the USSR had in the 1920s.

This registered cover is sent to "Suiza," or Switzerland in Spanish. Yes, obviously some stamps missing.

Thanks for the assistance and replies. Did not realize some stamps missing. The cover looked very clean and clear. Realized only now.
