Stamp Magazine

Jul-25 In the July issue of Stamp Magazine, we celebrate the enduring collectability of the famous 1853-64 triangular issue of the Cape of Good Hope, the first stamps of continental Africa. Three different printers ensured they exist in plenty of varieties. We also introduce you to Richard Lewington, the artist who has illustrated insects, spiders and other bugs in amazing detail for four Royal Mail special issues. How does he go about his work, and how does the wider design process work? A bonus feature from the archives spells out the 40 things everyone needs to know about postal reform and the Penny Black. Our regular Commonwealth Classics page focuses on the 1938 pictorial series of Gibraltar, while our ongoing series on British commemoratives in the early years of Queen Elizabeth II recalls the 1967 EFTA set, a celebration of the removal of trade tariffs! Our news pages report on the Chronicles of Narnia set from Royal Mail and other interesting new issues from around the world, while our opinion columns discuss the pros and cons of EuroPhilEx 2025 and why fewer people are collecting Great Britain’s new issues. Don’t miss it!
