I know very little about these stamps. I have tried to find some info about the overprints on line, to no avail and Scott says not much about them. The 3p, 3S and 5S seem to have some ink marks on them, not cancels. Looks like a runny pen. The former German colony of Cameroon was occupied by British, French and Belgian troops from 1915 onwards during the First World War. The British contingent was the " Cameroons Expeditionary Forces", which is the abbreviation printed on the German colonial stamps for postal traffic.

Those are from the British Occupation of Kamerun. If all are genuine, there's some pretty good catalog value there. Here are an older (2015/2016) Michel listing in English. There haven't really been any changes in value since then,

In the mail today, adding to my Kamerun collection. I had several of the low values previously, but now complete. I haven't checked all, but most high values have been hinged. Well that page is done, on to the next!
