Sudan 1950 20 Piastres Camel Postman

Sudan · 1950 · 20 Piastres

This airmail stamp features a dynamic design of a traditional camel postman, a symbol of Sudan's historic mail delivery system. The stamp is part of a definitive series that highlights the nation's culture and transportation methods. The bicolored design, with a brown vignette and a blue frame, was printed by Waterlow & Sons.

Issued during the Anglo-Egyptian condominium period, this stamp represents a time of transition for Sudan, showcasing its unique postal heritage just a few years before gaining independence in 1956.
