RHODESIA UNILATERAL DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE
1965 ITU to 1966 CAA
STAMPS & VARIETIES
RU2575
1965 2/6 Independence, printed First Day cover, sent airmail to England. Struck with 'T' hexagonal strike and 'INVALID STAMPS USED / POSTAGE DUE', endorsed '2/6'. Duly applied with GB dues. Further signed at upper left 'I. Douglas Smith'. A delightful emblematic item from the era, signed items from this early period after Independence are scarce.
