Postage stamps and postal history of Tibet : ウィキペディア英語版 | Postage stamps and postal history of Tibet
This is a survey of the postage stamps and postal history of Tibet. ==Foreign stamps== The first adhesive stamps issued for use in Tibet were typewritten overprints on Indian postage stamps 〔Robson Lowe, ''Encyclopedia of British Empire Postage Stamps,'' v. III London, Robson Lowe, Ltd. (1951) pp. 273-7.〕 through the 1903 period, during which the Tibetan Frontier Commission, led by Sir Francis Younghusband, arrived in Khamba Jong on July 7, 1903.〔Waterfall, Arnold C., ''The Postal History of Tibet,'' Robson Lowe (1981), p. 12, 20, 43, 45.〕 Soon after, as no progress was made in diplomatically settling issues of the Tibetan border with Sikkim, this became a military expedition. One result of the treaty signed September 7, 1904 was the establishment of Indian Postal Agencies at Gartok, in Western Tibet, and Gyantse, Pharijong and Yatung, along the Indian trade route to Lhasa.〔 Chinese forces occupied Tibet in 1909, when the Dalai Lama fled into Sikkim and India. However, there were Chinese communities in Tibet well before this, as shown by a registered letter from Wen Tsung-yao at Lhasa, January 9, 1909. Thereafter, Chinese stamps and special Chinese date stamps were used at Chabdo, Gyantse, Lhasa, Pharijong, Shigatse and Yatung. Postal communications of this period are scarce and eagerly sought after by both Chinese and Tibetan specialists.〔
