King George V, Kenya, Uganda and Tanganyika

Kenya, Uganda and Tanganyika · 1922 · 1s

This definitive stamp features a left-facing portrait of King George V, framed by an ornate design. The inscription 'KENYA AND UGANDA' appears at the top, with 'POSTAGE & REVENUE' below the portrait. The denomination '1s' (one shilling) is shown in the bottom corners.

Issued for use in the British colonies of Kenya and Uganda, this stamp is part of the first definitive series bearing the combined name. Tanganyika was added to the inscription in later printings of this design.
