Morocco First Issue, Mouflon

Morocco · 1891 · 25 Centimes

This stamp is the first issue for the French Post Offices in Morocco. The design, shared with other French colonies, features a prominent Mouflon (a type of wild sheep) set against a simple background, with the denomination clearly displayed.

Issued in 1891, this stamp marks the beginning of the French postal service in Morocco, reflecting France's growing influence in the region prior to the formal establishment of the protectorate in 1912.
