Mythical Creatures Stamp Collection
June 25th, 2009
Royal Mail’s latest stamp collection features six mythical creatures drawn from the UK’s rich folklore and legends. Dragons and Unicorns grace the 1st class stamps, with Giants, Pixies, Mermaids and Fairies on the 62p and 90p stamps. The artwork is by celebrated illustrator Dave McKean (well known for his Sandman comic covers amongst others). These special stamp collections are only available for a limited time, so if you are wanting to add a little fantasy to your correspondence, stock up now! Also available is a special presentation pack with all 6 mint stamps with creature commentary by Neil Gaiman, or a set of postcards featuring the illustrations.
