stevo45 , an interesting lot and the answer to your question is not straightforward. From British Commonwealth Revenues (J Barefoot Ltd) Your first three are: 3d green from 1904 catalogue number 78, 3d green from c.1915, cat. no. 131 and probably 2d orange from c.1915 cat. no. 130. The next lot are stamp duty stamps valid for and used as postage, hence the black postmarks. They are listed in Stanley Gibbons as postage stamps. The 2d mauve is from 1884 and is SG 298 2d, the 6d blue is from 1886 and is SG 365. the postage due is listed at the back of the postage stamps, SG D12. Daniel

stevo45 Your TPO (Travelling Post Office) Postmark MG15 Up Train (MG15 Unknown service for me) Thanks Rod - Great Information - I was unaware of the Travelling Train PO's. Very Common "back in the day" it seems.
