East Africa and Uganda Protectorates : ウィキペディア英語版 | Postage stamps and postal history of East Africa and Uganda Protectorates
East Africa and Uganda Protectorates was the name used by the combined postal service of the British protectorates, British East Africa and Uganda, between 1 April 1903 and 22 July 1920. The administration issued postage stamps with the profile of King Edward VII and inscribed "EAST AFRICA AND UGANDA PROTECTORATES" in 1903. The same basic design was used throughout the period, with new watermark and colours in 1904 and 1907, respectively, and the substitution of King George V in 1912. The 6c stamp was surcharged 4c in 1919. While the lower-denomination stamps are common, stamps of up to 500 rupees were sold, primarily for use as revenue stamps. Postal usages of the higher values are scarce and valuable. ==Kenya and Uganda== On 23 July 1920 British East Africa became a Crown Colony of Kenya, with the exception of a coastal strip which remained a protectorate.〔Stanley Gibbons Stamp Catalogue Part 1 British Commonwealth〕 Stamps were then inscribed "KENYA AND UGANDA"
