This is a survey of the postage stamps and postal history of the Niger Territories, an area between the Forcados and Brasse Rivers, once administered by the Royal Niger Company but now part of modern Nigeria. ==First stamps== The first stamps used in the Niger Territories were British stamps from 1890.〔Rossiter, Stuart & John Flower. ''The Stamp Atlas''. London: Macdonald, 1986, p.311. ISBN 0-356-10862-7〕 The Niger Territories never issued stamps, they only used British stamps which can be identified by their distinctive postmarks. The postmarks were inscribed "THE NIGER TERRITORIES POST OFFICE" or "THE ROYAL NIGER COMPANY CHARTERED & LIMITED", and with the name of the post office underneath. The post offices were: *Abutshi (4 October to 31 December 1899) *Akassa (1888 to December 1899) *Asaba (inscr. Agent Gereral Niger Territories) (1894 to 4 August 1895) *Buruntu (20 January 1897 to 20 May 1899) *Lokoja (30 June to 31 December 1899)
