Book Summary
History of revenue documents used in British Burma is very complex. At different times and often enough simultaneously in British Burma different varieties of stamped papers were used e.g.:
* stamp papers of British India;
* stamp papers of British India with "BURMA" overprint;
* stamp papers specifically printed for British Burma;
* stamp papers specifically printed for British Burma with "MILY. ADMIN." overprint;
* stamp papers of British Burma with King George V (KGV) image used with Royal Cypher of King George VI (KGVI);
* stamp papers issued by Japanese during their occupation of Burma.
A Central Depot in Rangoon for the supply of stationery and stamps to the provinces of Burma and the Andamans was opened in March 1907. [Extract from the Introduction.]
