UK Cathedral Stamps

Howard Brown (designer) - Royal Mail Mini Press Sheet (detail) St Paul's Cathedral (2008)UK stamp collectors will already know that today is the first day of issue for a new set of special stamps showing six of the UK's finest cathedrals: Lichfield, Belfast, Gloucester, St David's, Westminster and St Magnus. Unfortunately these stamps - designed by Howard Brown - are in monochrome, so they don't convey the beauty of the interiors as well as does this detail from a Mini Press Sheet showing St Paul's Cathedral (the 7th cathedral mentioned by Royal Mail, not included in the set of 6). Click the title link for details and magnified graphics.
