Kenya Postage Due J1, Red and Black

Kenya · 1928 · 10c

This is the first postage due stamp issued for the colony of Kenya. The design features a bold numeral '10' in the center, indicating the amount due, framed by an ornate border. The stamp is printed in two colors, red and black, with the country name 'KENYA' prominently displayed at the top.

Issued in 1928, this stamp was used to collect insufficient postage on mail within the British Colony of Kenya, reflecting the formalization of its postal system under British administration.
