George V Set

George V was King of the United Kingdom and the British Dominions, and Emperor of India, from 1910 until his death in 1936. He was the first British monarch of the House of Windsor.
Although he occasionally toured the British Empire, George preferred to stay at home with his stamp collection and lived, what later biographers would consider, a dull life because of its conventionality.

King George V and Queen Mary visited the Isle of Man in 1920.
The images featured on the stamps depict the following scenes:

55p - Royal Party at Bishops Court, Ballaugh
60p - The King and Queen ascended Tynwald Hill, St Johns
67p - Queen’s Pier, Ramsey
96p - Visit to War Disabled at Ramsey Cottage Hospital
97p - Tree planting at Bishops Court, Ballaugh
£1.10 - Royal Party at Castletown
