Rhodesia Postage Due 1c, 2c, 4c, 6c

Rhodesia · 1970 · 1c, 2c, 4c, 6c

This set of four postage due stamps features a simple, functional design with large, clear numerals indicating the amount due: 1c, 2c, 4c, and 6c. The design is utilitarian, printed in a single color (carmine) with the text 'RHODESIA' at the top and 'POSTAGE DUE' at the bottom, emphasizing its purpose of collecting insufficient postage.

Issued in 1970, this set was released during the Unilateral Declaration of Independence (UDI) period of Rhodesia, shortly after the country declared itself a republic. These stamps were used to collect postage shortfalls on mail within the country.
