145. Sudan Telegraph Overprint
Unknown 144 Back to UPO Home Unknown 146
| What can anyone tell me about this Egyptian stamp overprinted for Soudan, and then handstamped "TEL"? |
| Sudan made a specific design for military telegraph during this era, but civilian telegraphs were handled by use of this overprint. I have not been able to find out whether the overprint was applied to mint sheets or was applied at the telegraph office. [Brian McGrath] |
| I have since found the stamp listed in Byrum's "Supplemental Stamp Catalogue", T1 of 1897. [Rick Scott] |
