RHODESIA

This is the most popular issue of Rhodesia; a beautiful set of stamps, showing portraits of both Queen Mary and King George V.
Rhodesia Specialist Alan Hanks made several of his Rhodesia Re-entries available for scanning. These are indicated by his name in the title column of each of his stamps. Other re-entries shown are in my own collection.

The Major Re-entry

This stamp shows remarkedly clear doubling of the left side of the design, including the upper left 1D, 'BRIT,' all of the long vertical lines, the lower left ornament, 'RHO,' and the background lines extend into the Queen's neck. The latter is responsible for the nickname, "Queen's Neck" re-entry, for this stamp.
