Stamp Magazine | June 2023
In the June issue we mark the 100th anniversary of the opening of the original Wembley Stadium by considering its resonance in philately, including not one, not two, but three iconic British stamp issues centred on events it hosted.
We also investigate the appeal of a distinctive French issue, the definitive series of 1923-32 portraying the scientist Louis Pasteur. Its postal history was unusual and it generated an absorbing array of surcharges, overprints and precancels.
Our series on Great Britain’s special issues in the early years of Queen Elizabeth II considers the 1963 International Lifeboat Conference trio, which looked rather like a thematic set but wasn’t.
Meanwhile, Commonwealth Classics focuses on Queensland’s 1900 Patriotic Fund stamps, which resembled a voluntary tax, and Strange But True tells the story of an early pictorial series from Liberia which created one of the world’s most spectacular errors.
Our news pages analyse Great Britain’s Coronation issue for King Charles III (although it isn’t called a Coronation issue), delve into the realms of Papuan folklore and Swiss crypto stamps, and admire the latest highlights from the auction rooms.
Don’t miss it!
