Mozambique Company Coat of Arms Commemoratives, Complete Set

Mozambique Company · 1937 · Various (19 values)

This complete set of 19 commemorative stamps was issued by the Mozambique Company, a royal charter company that administered the central part of the Portuguese colony. The design prominently features the company's coat of arms, which includes a shield with Portuguese elements and two elephants as supporters, symbolizing its authority and the region's fauna. The stamps were printed in various colors and denominations to serve postal needs within the territory.

Issued in 1937, these stamps represent the final years of the Mozambique Company's charter, which expired in 1942. They reflect the colonial administrative structure in Portuguese Africa before direct rule was re-established.
