Officials: 1922-23, OHEMS: 5m. pink, pair, neatly tied on 1923 (23.6) Official cover from Asyut via Cairo

(backstamp) to London, England, by ASYUT/23.6.23 cds with similar cds and oval steel hs “MINING

WORKSHOPS / ASSIUT” alongside, a fine and scarce usage.

Note: The official imprint on the envelope has been altered: the Arabic “Government of the Khedive of

Egypt” has been obliterated and “Government of the Sultan of Egypt” has been added. This was done

on the deposing of Khedive Abbas Hilmi on 19th Dec. 1914 (because of his pro German views) and his

replacement by Sultan Hussein Kamil. The latter was promoted from Khedive to Sultan chiefly to spite

the Ottoman Empire leaders.
