Stamps of Fujairah: Apollo Space Flights, Moon landing
Before the first Post Office was opened in Fujairah, the locals used a courier Saeed Mohammed Tanaji to take letters to Kuwait and Saudi Arabia and collect mail on his way back to Fujairah. Secondly, there was also a grocery named Abdul Rasak Grocery. They would accept mails from locals and take it to Dubai to be sent out. He would also collect any mails for locals from the Dubai Post Office. This information was obtained from locals and unfortunately, there are no letters known from this period to confirm this.
