British Occupation of Italian Colonies (Middle East Forces) 1942 2½d ultramarine, SGM8b.

Lovely fresh unmounted mint pair with full original gum (upper stamp with minor gum disturbance).

These stamps of Great Britain were overprinted by Army Printing Services in Cairo for use in territory occupied by British Forces in Eritrea, Italian Somaliland, Cyrenaica, Tripolitania and some of the Dodecanese islands.

A very scarce stamp.
