Description: The item is a commemorative postage stamp issued by Great Britain's Royal Mail for the Ninth Postal Union Congress. Printed in a striking scarlet or bright carmine ink, the design displays the left-facing profile portrait of King George V nestled within a central square frame featuring stylized, radiating sunburst background lines. Arching gracefully over the monarch's head is the specific event inscription "POSTAL UNION CONGRESS LONDON 1929." The top of the stamp is crowned by the traditional Tudor Crown flanked by "POSTAGE" and "REVENUE" banners, with circular "1" numeric value tablets in the upper corners, all resting above a bold bottom banner reading "ONE PENNY."
