Antarctic 1922 Shackleton Rowett Expedition on GB Great Britain 1/- KGV block of stamps overprinted Gough Island Syria "Pre-Stamp Cachets Registered Potato coverThese stamps were issued by Ernest Shackleton as a fundraiser for this expedition.

As always he was desperately short of money and had to cut corners, utilising a very poor ship which was all he could afford. The great man subsequently died on this trip at South Georgia
