pictorial stamp, with a depiction of the Queen's Staircase in Nassau.In 1935, a pictorial stamp depicted flamingoes in flight;
replaced with George VI's profile, along with designs showing Fort
Charlotte, and a "sea garden", likely the first time underwater scenery
appeared on a stamp.The Bahamas issued commemoratives for the centenary of Bahamian stamps
in 1959, and for the centenary of Nassau in 1962. In 1964 the entire set of the 1954 issue was overprinted "NEW
