1 in stock
This beautiful 1½d definitive stamp from Ascension Island features the Black Noddy (Anous minutus), a seabird commonly found nesting along the island’s rocky shores. The bird is depicted beside its nest and egg, rendered with naturalistic detail. To the right appears a finely engraved portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, crowned with the Tudor Crown, symbolizing the British Overseas Territory’s allegiance to the Crown.
Issued in 1956 as part of Ascension’s definitive “Birds” series, this stamp highlights the island’s unique avian fauna and remote ecology of the South Atlantic. Its combination of wildlife art and colonial portraiture exemplifies mid-20th-century British Commonwealth design.
