Kenya Definitive Stamp - Postage Due

Kenya · 1963 · 10c

This is a definitive postage due stamp from Kenya, issued shortly after its independence. The design is purely functional, featuring the denomination '10c' prominently in the center within an ornate frame, with the words 'POSTAGE DUE' at the top and 'KENYA' at the bottom.

Issued in 1963, this stamp marks the period when Kenya transitioned from a British colony to an independent nation. Postage due stamps were used to collect payment for insufficient postage from the recipient of a letter.
