Rhodesia 1970 Postage Due Set

Rhodesia · 1970 · 1c, 2c, 4c, 10c

This set of four postage due stamps features a simple, functional design centered around large, clear numerals indicating the amount due. The design is purely typographic, with the country name 'RHODESIA' at the top and the denomination spelled out below the numeral. The stamps were printed in distinct colors for each value: brown (1c), green (2c), red (4c), and blue (10c).

Issued in 1970, these were the first postage due stamps released by Rhodesia following its Unilateral Declaration of Independence (UDI) in 1965 and its declaration of a republic in March 1970.
