St. Helena to Germany and China - Boer War POW Postcard Intended for German Naval Forces in Tsingtau 25 July 1900, a 1d red postal

St. Helena to Germany and China - Boer War POW Postcard Intended for German Naval Forces in Tsingtau 25 July 1900, a 1d red postal stationery card of St. Helena, cancelled by a crisp "ST. HELENA /JY 28/00" c.d.s., sent from the Boer War prisoner-of-war camp on the island. The card bears a prominent "CENSOR / PRISONERS OF WAR" cachet and was carried via Southampton, showing a SHIP LETTER / SOUTHAMPTON / 28 AU 00 transit mark. Addressed to Herr David S. Hirsche, on board S.M.S. Gefion, a German naval cruiser, the original delivery address roughly reads "Tsantau in China" (Tsingtau), which was at the time Germany's leased territory and naval stronghold in East Asia. This line was not crossed out, indicating the card was initially intended to reach "Kiel, Germany" and was later added to Berlin, with a final redirection to Tsantau in China. A German arrival mark KIEL / 29.8.00 confirms its arrival in Germany. The handwritten note at the top references the 1st Seebataillon bound for Tientsin, further linking this card to the German intervention in China during the Boxer Rebellion, making it a rare and historically significant example of Boer War POW mail with direct ties to East Asian military operations
