Postal History on cover from Singapore

I received another fine cover from Johnny Lowis - three stamps from set The 150th Anniversary of the First Postage Stamp Issued in Singapore, issued on 01.09.2017.  

2017 is a special year in remembering and appreciating the history of postage stamps of Singapore. On 1 September 1867, stamps of India overprinted with a crown and various rates of postage were released becoming the first postage stamps of the Straits Settlements. This stamp issue is released to commemorate the 150th Anniversary of the First Postage Stamp Issued in Singapore.


Thank you Johnny!
