Jamaica Postage Due Stamp, Red-Brown

Jamaica · 1929 · 2d

This is a postage due stamp from Jamaica, featuring a simple, functional design. The central element is the large numeral '2' indicating the two-pence value, enclosed within an ornate frame. The words 'JAMAICA', 'POSTAGE', and 'DUE' are clearly inscribed, along with the denomination 'TWO PENCE'.

Issued during the reign of King George V, these stamps were used by post offices to collect additional postage from the recipient for mail that was insufficiently prepaid. The design was part of a series used across the British Empire.
