First
Known Stamps! These are From Kirby Crawford,
who was with the team that visited the island for a year in 1968
(Click Here for
that page)... Kirby writes: "Here's a couple of scans of
stamps that I mailed from the plantation in July of '69 to my mother in
Cumberland, Wisconsin. To mail letters then, you just walked over
to the tally house, picked up the cancellation stamp and canceled your
own letters, left them in the box until the Nordvaer would come in from
Mahe. Best Regards, Kirby C."
Editor's Note - in those days,
BIOT used stamps from the colonies of the Seychelles, Aldabra, etc., and
simply superimposed the logo "B.I.O.T." on them.
