1922 cover to Dublin with a pair of 1d’s cancelled BRIDGETOWN, WEXFORD, 2 DE 22 that was seized by the IRA, opened and a large two line I R A / CENSORED handstamp applied. In December 1922 a fresh wave of Republican attacks against Nationalist held towns started in the south, particularly in the Wexford area. Many post offices were targeted. Some cover faults as to be expected, but a scarce censored cover.
