It is a label of some sort - possibly what we call a "cinderella." It is not a postage stamp.

Probably non-postal issue of Tibet. But don't worry. Tony will be here soon.

The SG catalogue has the following note at the end of its Tibet listing:

"A set of five values showing the white lion in various frames, all inscr "STAMP", are generally believed not to be postal issues."

It is indeed an unofficial 'Official' of Tibet.

It's interesting, and suggestive, to note that Jammu & Kashmir, which was also in the Himalayan region abutting western Tibet, and which had territorial claims over the region (and which in the western region of Kashmir - around Leh - was Tibetan in language and culture) also used black for its Official stamps:



although the British had the Jammu & Kashmir State PO closed down in 1894.
