1948: Rizal O.B. overprint

On December 30, 1948 another official stamp was released, this time an OB overprint on the Rizal 2c green definitive. This was the last issue for 1948.
Printing quantity: 12,999,100
Overprint printing by the Philippine Bureau of Printing
Perforation measurement: 12
Unwatermarked paper
The quantity printed was reduced by a later surcharge.
Overprint freaks:
Shifted and slanted upward (reading B.O. instead of O.B.)
[Data taken from various sources.]
