Transkei Revenue Stamps, Complete Set

Transkei · 1988 · Various (14 values)

This is a complete set of 14 revenue stamps issued by the Bantustan of Transkei. The designs feature the Transkei coat of arms, which includes a maize cob, a cogwheel, and a bull's head, symbolizing agriculture, industry, and livestock. These stamps were used for fiscal purposes, such as taxes and legal fees, rather than for postage.

Issued in 1988, these stamps represent the administrative functions of Transkei, one of the four nominally independent Bantustans created by South Africa during the apartheid era. Transkei was reincorporated into South Africa in 1994.
