Postage stamps and postal history of the Niassa Company

This is a survey of the postage stamps and postal history of the Nyassa Company.
The ''Nyassa Company'', in Portuguese the ''Companhia do Nyassa'', and sometimes spelled "Niassa", was a royal company in the Portuguese colony of Mozambique, then known as Portuguese East Africa, that had the concession of the lands that include the present provinces of Cabo Delgado and Niassa between 1891 and 1929. During that time it issued a total of 141 postage stamps,〔Claude Emerson – Portu-Info (International Society for Portuguese Philately) Volume 22, No. 93, January 1987 (Reprinted here ).〕 although only a small percentage of these were ever issued for actual postal usage in Nyassa, the remainder being created to take advantage of a buoyant philatelic market for the region's stamps in London.
== Bogus issue ==
The postal history of the Nyassa Company got off to an inauspicious start in 1895 when the governor of the newly created Company left England bound for Nyassa taking with him some 158,000,000 reis-worth of newly printed stamps. The stamps, which featured the Cabo Delgado Tower in Cabo Delgado Province, in the north of the Company's territory, had been printed in England. Under the terms of the Company's mandate from Portugal, however, whilst the Company had the power to issue stamps it was a requirement that those stamps be printed in Portugal.〔(Betram Poole ), Mekeel's Weekly Stamp News 25 Feb 1911 Volume XXV, Number 8, Whole Issue Number 1052. (Reprinted here. )〕 As this stipulation had not been complied with, the Portuguese government declared the issue invalid and required its destruction – all but a small number of the stamps were therefore destroyed.〔
