Fiji Postage Stamps - S2E2

06/10/2026 · Exploring Stamps

Descrição

A postage stamp from Fiji is reissued following a concern expressed by stamp enthusiasts in this second episode of the season. I explore Fiji's history from its earliest inhabitants, the Lapita Culture, through King Cakobau and becoming a British Colony.

Corrections
2:08 Not Fiji Times Express Stamps of 1870, these are 1871 Government stamps.
Fiji’s first stamps from Fiji Times Express can be viewed and read about here: http://www.columbianstamp.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/FijiTimes.pdf
The Monogram “CR” was used by the Government, not on the true first stamps from the Fiji Times Express.
