Kenya 1973 Postage Due Set of 6

Kenya · 1973 · 1 Shilling, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 Cents

This set of six postage due stamps from Kenya, issued in 1973, features a clean and functional design. Each stamp displays the country name 'KENYA' at the top, a large numeral indicating the denomination in the center, and 'POSTAGE DUE' at the bottom, all within a decorative rectangular frame.

Postage due stamps are used by postal authorities to indicate that insufficient postage has been paid on a mail item, requiring the recipient to pay the outstanding amount. This 1973 set served to collect underpaid postage within Kenya's postal system.
