🇬🇧 Royal Mail -
5 September 2023 - 65th anniversary of the publication of the first Paddington book - 6 stamps (3 se-tenant pairs), 1 miniature sheet containing 4+different stamps and 1 ‘Collectors sheet’ containing 10 x 1st Class domestic rate stamps (5 of each design) with attached labels, sold for £12. Designed by Together Design and lithographed by Cartor and perforated 14.5. Rating:- 0. Previously reported in Blog 2356 but more information and better quality illustrations now provided. Underwhelming and pointless.
I was really looking forward to the Paddington issue, as I loved the TV series as a child, but as you write this is underwhelming. I was hoping to see an issue with different Paddington versions through the years including the recent movie version and the famous scene with the Queen.
