Perkins, Bacon & Petch printed for colonial governments across the empire, but the Sarawak commissions were unusual — Sarawak was not a British Crown Colony but a private domain ruled by the Brooke family, White Rajahs by hereditary succession rather than by appointment from Whitehall. Charles Vyner Brooke, the third and final Rajah, took full power in 1917 and issued this series as sovereign authority in his own right, not as a representative of the Crown.
The 1922 date places this note early in his reign, a decade before the 1941 Japanese invasion that effectively ended Brooke family rule, though Vyner's formal cession of Sarawak to Britain did not come until 1946.
