Kenya, Uganda & Tanzania · 1973 · 30c, 70c, 1/50, 2/50

This set of four stamps commemorates the 10th anniversary of the independence of Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania. The designs feature soldiers from each of the three nations marching with their respective national flags, symbolizing their shared history and military cooperation under the East African Community.

Issued in 1973, these stamps celebrate a decade of self-rule for the three East African nations, which had gained independence from Britain in the early 1960s. They were issued for use throughout the East African postal union.
