Stamp_ British East Africa_ 1896
The Imperial British East Africa Company was the first company holding a Royal Charter allowing operation of a postal system, for both local and international mail, to use their company name on their stamps. They were also the first to create a series of surcharged stamps with authorizing initials. Both of these led to the adoption of these practices by other countries such as the British South Africa Company and the Mozambique Company in 1892 and the surcharged Uganda typewritten stamps in 1895.
The Imperial British East Africa Company set up post offices at Mombasa and Lamu in May 1890. The first stamps issued, on 23 May 1890, were surcharges on British postage stamps with values of ½, 1 and 4 annas and ‘BRITISH EAST AFRICA COMPANY’.
During an acute shortage of stamps in August and September 1890 stamps of India were used and are known postmarked ‘MOMBASA’ or ‘LAMU’. It is alleged that an agent of stamp dealer Whitfield King bought up all the stocks in the post offices.
The British East Africa Company issued stamps, on 14 October 1890, using a symbolic sun and crown design and inscribed ‘IMPERIAL BRITISH EAST AFRICA COMPANY’, all valued in annas and rupees.
Shortages, of some values, between 1891 and 1895 resulted in a variety of surcharges being produced.
