Myanmar 1947 Provisional Government Overprints Set

Myanmar · 1947 · 1/2 Anna to 15 Rupees (15 values)

This set of 15 stamps from Myanmar (Burma) was issued in 1947 by the Provisional Government. It features various denominations of British India King George VI definitive stamps overprinted with 'BURMA POSTAGE' in Burmese script and English, along with new values.

These provisional issues were released following Burma's separation from British India and prior to its full independence in 1948, reflecting the transitional period and the establishment of its own postal administration.
