Postmarks of Mauritius

Introduction

This website is designed to catalogue the different postmarks used in Mauritius. Postmarks are arranged alphabetically by town and then chronologically. Scans of cancels shown are made at 800ppi although scans from different sources may be different.  My main sources of information are the books by Edward D Proud and Peter Ibbotson FRPSL, with further information from https://www.postmarks.co.za/PH%20Mauritius.htm. Further information can also be found within the African Postal Heritage Papers published by Universiteit Leiden in the Netherlands. https://www.ascleiden.nl/content/african-postal-heritage-aph-papers
