Abstract

The 'Great War' had a major impact on Africa and that is visible in the post stamps used in the various postal territories in Africa. This paper discusses the postal offices, postal services, and stamps used in the German colony Togo during the early twentieth century. For the postal history of the First World War in the German colonies Kamerun, Deutsch-Sdwestafrika (SWA) and Deutsch-Ostafrika/German East AFrica (GEA), see the ASC working papers 117, 118 and 119.
