Issued on 19 September 1984, this commemorative pair from St. Kitts celebrates the first anniversary of independence of St. Kitts and Nevis. The $3 stamp, designed by Allister Williams, depicts palm trees framing the islands with the national flag motif against a tropical sunrise. The $1.10 stamp, by Myrna Elcock and Lavelle Freeman, illustrates the national anthem “O Land of Beauty” with musical notes overlaying a coastal landscape. Both stamps proudly display the “SPECIMEN” overprint, marking them as presentation issues symbolizing national pride and creative artistry at the dawn of independence.
