Port Louis, Mauritius

Some savage postal employee thoroughly defaced the wonderful stamps on this nice cover from Mauritius. I wonder sometimes if it's just done out of spite. From bottom left to right, a cowrie shell from a 2017 sea shells set, a 2022 stamp commemorating the 200th anniversary of the municipal theater in Port Louis, a 2023 stamp commemorating the 50th anniversary of the State Bank of Mauritius, and a Mauritius Blue Pigeon from a 2022 extinct species definitives set.
