Game licences by country

The licence a hunter took out before the season or the safari: the kind of licence, the fee paid, the big game allowed besides. For the hunt that finds something no licence covers.

Bearer prints it for 2 offices: Colony and Protectorate of Kenya, France. Each is read off a document of the time or reconstructed on the country's law, and says which.

Bearer makes an investigator's papers for Call of Cthulhu and any 1920s or 1930s tabletop campaign: the passport a consul would have filled in, with the visas and frontier stamps a campaign leaves in it, and the permits, certificates and tickets of the period, to print or to share.
