Description: This definitive postage stamp from the Caribbean colony of Jamaica features an engraved portrait of King George V, utilizing a standardized British imperial keyplate design produced by De La Rue. The words "POSTAGE" and "REVENUE" ascend the left and right inner frames to validate its dual usage for mail delivery and official fiscal tax receipts. An ornate imperial crown anchors the upper border above the face value of 1/2d, while the country name "JAMAICA" stretches across a decoratively filled lower banner.
Circa: 1912–1920s
