FANTIPPO
|
The High Kingdom of Fantippo, in western Africa, was brought to fame by John Dolittle M.D., a roving English general practitioner and veterinarian, in the late nineteenth century. At his suggestion, a Post Office was opened, and numerous stamps were issued, bearing the portrait of His Majesty, King Koko. Many of these stamps remain in use in Fantippo today. |
