Item Description
Zanzibar sgd3 3c post due x 2 used as postage stamps on cover ex griffith-jones
Postage due. 1931 (23 apr) abdulhusein esmailji printed blue/green cover (with bilingual gujrati/english address) from mkoan pemba to zanzibar franked on reverse by 1926-30 3c black/orange postage dues x2 (r1/2 and 5/1 from corrected setting) overlapping an original strike of the despatch squared circle but tied by two further strikes. The cover and stamps with faults still good appearance and a wholly exceptional and unique usage there being no other instance of the usage of the 1926-30 and 1930-33 postage due issues outside the zanzibar g.P.O. A possible explanation in the absence of any tax markings is that postage dues were here used as provisional postage stamps. A fascinating and important item. Ex griffith-jones (discussed and illustrated as fig 11.37 on p.318 of his book. Census f.102). Original purchased from stanley gibbons (still on their card)
