Sudan Official Stamp, Camel Postman

Sudan · 1921 · 10m

This definitive official stamp features the iconic 'Camel Postman' design by Captain E.A. Stanton. The central vignette shows a postman riding a camel through the desert, a classic symbol of mail delivery in Sudan. The stamp is overprinted with 'S.G.' (Sudan Government) for official government use.

Issued during the Anglo-Egyptian Condominium period, this stamp represents the primary method of long-distance communication and governance across the vast territory of Sudan in the early 20th century.
