I extracted the cover page from that otherwise boring 1957 document downloaded from a library in the Netherlands which proves that the designation "Protectorate of Kenya" was legitimate at that time.

The “Protectorate of Kenya” refers to the coastal strip, including Mombasa, which was under the sovereignty of the Sultan of Zanzibar but also under British protection until 1963, when the “colony” and the “protectorate” were merged as independent Kenya.
