Cambodia Postage Due Stamp, 1951

Cambodia · 1951 · 50c

This is a postage due stamp from Cambodia, issued in 1951. The design is simple and functional, featuring a large numeral '50' indicating the centime value to be collected. The text 'TIMBRE-TAXE' at the top confirms its purpose as a tax or postage due stamp, with the country name 'CAMBODGE' at the bottom.

Issued shortly after Cambodia gained more autonomy within the French Union, this stamp represents the transitional period before full independence in 1953. Postage due stamps were used to collect insufficient postage from the recipient of a letter.
