This exceptional postal stamp hails from East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) and represents a significant piece of South Asian philatelic history from 1963. The stamp features a striking blue coloration depicting the iconic Khyber Pass, a historically important mountain passage that has shaped the region’s trade and cultural exchanges for centuries. What makes this particular stamp especially noteworthy is the red “Service” overprint—a designation indicating official postal use during the pre-independence era.

Graded in Extremely Fine condition, this used stamp showcases remarkable preservation despite its age and postal circulation. The overprint clarity and color vibrancy are excellent, making it a visually appealing addition to any collection. Stamps from East Pakistan are increasingly sought after by collectors interested in post-colonial history and regional postal systems. The rarity of this specific overprint variety, combined with its historical context bridging Pakistan’s administrative period to modern Bangladesh, enhances its desirability among serious philatelists and history enthusiasts.

Perfect for those building collections centered on South Asian postal history or the Subcontinent’s transitional periods, this stamp serves as both an investment and a tangible connection to mid-20th century heritage.
