This document is the official government Blue Book for Kenya Colony and Protectorate, published in 1935 for the fiscal year ending 31 December 1934. Rather than pulp fiction, the text comprises detailed administrative and statistical records. The indexed sections cover taxation (customs duties, excise duties, fees), revenue and expenditure, government establishments, education, vital statistics, trade figures, shipping, railways, ports, and various departmental returns. The specific content includes extensive tariff schedules itemizing duties on imports such as foodstuffs, beverages, textiles, and manufactured goods—wheat, rice, maize, meat, dairy products, alcoholic spirits and wines, tobacco products, and clothing. The duty amounts vary by commodity, specification, and classification, reflecting colonial trade regulation. Additional sections document civil establishments, pensions, population statistics, and infrastructure reporting typical of imperial administrative documentation.
Each page has its own page — the cartoon, who’s in it, and what the satire means.
