A rare series of legal notices published during World War II by the British Military, setting out laws to be observed in Ethiopia after the British and their allies seized control of the region from the Italians who had taken control in 1936. Subjects include the sale of alcohol and drugs, police discipline, infectious diseases, curfews, and even distribution of icecream.

The East African Campaign (also known as the Abyssinian Campaign) was fought in East Africa during the Second World War by the Allied Powers, mainly from the British Empire, against Italy and its colony of Italian East Africa, between June 1940 and November 1941. The British restored Haile Sellasie I, who had been ousted by the Italians, and under his authority established criminal courts and published these notices.

Rare. We only find reference to these notices in the British Library Reference collection, and they do not name which exact notices are present.

Small 4to; a proclamation dated 5/8/41 establishing criminal tribunals, and 17 legal notices, various dates in 1941, varying in length from single leaves to 6 pages, versions published both in English and Italian, typed index at the beginning, cloth-backed card wrappers, wear to spine, a very good copy.
