Forwarding agent (philately) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Forwarding agent (philately)
A forwarding agent was an intermediary who facilitated the routing of international mail before the development of the modern postal system. ==History== In the early days of postal communications it was often necessary for international mail to pass through a number of hands before reaching its eventual destination. At each stage the agent would add their own mark. For instance, a letter might pass first through the sender's domestic post office's hands, then to a forwarder for a sea journey and then to the post office of the destination country. The study of the marks of forwarding agents on mail is a popular branch of postal history.
