  Bechuanaland Protectorate   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
The Bechuanaland Protectorate was a protectorate established in 1884 by Great Britain in the area of what is now Botswana.
The first postage stamps were produced in 1888 by overprinting stamps of Bechuanaland (some overprints of British stamps and some issued specifically for the colony) with "Protectorate".
Three stamps in 1960 commemorated the 75th anniversary of the protectorate, then in 1961 Bechuanaland converted to the South African rand, necessitating surcharges on the existing definitives in February, followed by a new definitive series in October that was mostly pictures of birds, with some showing people at work.
