Description: This historic commemorative stamp block displays a monochrome side-profile portrait of Mahatma Gandhi wearing his signature round spectacles. The striking illustration is set against a horizontal split background of bright orange and green bands, mirroring the national colors of India. A clean gray silhouette profile of Queen Elizabeth II anchors the top right corner of each individual vignette. The right side of each stamp features a clear fraction denomination reading "1/6" in dark typography, positioned directly above three lines of green sans-serif text stating "Gandhi Centenary Year 1969". This specific specimen survives as an intact, unseparated multiple block of six stamps where two of the individual pieces remain folded beneath the upper paper selvage margin.
