Legislative Assembly Commemorative Issue

Sudan · 1948 · 5 Piastres and 10 Millièmes

This two-stamp set commemorates the opening of the Legislative Assembly in Sudan in December 1948. Both stamps feature a central vignette of a camel rider, a common motif representing transport and culture in the region, framed by decorative borders and text in English and Arabic.

Issued during the Anglo-Egyptian Condominium, these stamps mark a significant step in Sudan's journey towards self-governance. The establishment of the Legislative Assembly was a move to introduce limited local representation and prepare for eventual independence.
