The first day covers from places such as Barbados, Grenada, Jamaica, Montserrat, Nevis, and Trinidad and Tobago commemorate several key events regionally and internationally. The article examines how the material culture of the post can provide a visual archive and narratives of the past, pertaining to the history, natural and cultural heritage of the British West Indies.
