  • Victory Issue Date of Issue: 11 JUNE 1946
    SPECIAL STAMP HISTORY Victory Issue Date of issue: 11 JUNE 1946 The first recorded suggestion for a ‘Victory’ issue was on 3 April 1941, when Sir Ernest Graham-Little, MP for London University, put a parliamentary question asking the Postmaster General (PMG) to consider a stamp, the design of which should be thought out now and the preparation of which would have an excellent psychological effect. Sir Graham's proposal received scant attention until it was examined at a meeting between GPO and Government representatives on 19 June. The meeting decided unanimously that ‘the time was far from ripe’ for even preliminary consideration, although it was not finally shelved until 23 July. By the end of 1941 supply problems had effectively ruled out special stamp issues for the duration of the war. An internal Postal Services Department memorandum written by G W Southerst on 7 October 1944 stated that it had been decided at a very high level . that no ‘victory postage stamps’ should be produced in this country at the end of the war, but that special victory stamp cancelling dies should be used instead. It continued: ‘We don’t recollect that the papers, which were no doubt highly confidential, were even referred to us’. It seems as if this decision was imposed on the GPO and, as will be seen, a Cabinet meeting was eventually required to reverse it. At the end of 1943 the question was revived following an article by the columnist Clement Yorke in the SUNDAY DISPATCH of 28 November, berating the GPO for not using stamps for propaganda.

ST800984. The manor house, garden and grounds are open on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays every week from 1st May to 30th September. Please check the up-to-date opening times (telephone: 01453-860261, or website: www.owlpen.com).

There are nine holiday cottages on the Estate, including three listed historic buildings. Sleeping 2 to 10, they are available for short stays throughout the year. Acknowledgements When we acquired the manor and estate in 1974, we little realized what a formidable task it would be—managing, making, conserving, repairing, edifying—absorbing energies forever after. We would like to thank the countless people who have helped or encouraged, those with specialized knowledge and interests as well as those responsible, indefatigably and patiently, for the daily round. We thank especially HRH The Prince of Wales for gracious permission to quote from A Vision of Britain; long-suffering parents, children, and staff; David Mlinaric (interiors); Jacob Pot and Andrew Townsend (conservation architecture); Rory Young and Ursula Falconer (lime repairs); John Sales, Penelope Hobhouse and Simon Verity (gardens); Stephen Davis and Duff Hart-Davis (fire brigades); and Joan Gould and Martin Fairfax-Cholmeley (loans).

  • 1960 – Tercentenary of Establishment of the General Letter Office
    SPECIAL STAMP HISTORY Tercentenary of Establishment of the General Letter Office Date of issue: 7 JULY 1960 The idea of commemorating the 300th anniversary of the establishment of the Post Office seems to have first been mentioned in 1955. On 11 October that year, Mr Langfield of the Postal Services Department (PSD) requested information as to whether the anniversary fell in 1957, ‘in case the question of special stamps arises’. The idea that the Post Office dated from 1657 arose from Oliver Cromwell’s Parliamentary Act of that year which established a ‘General Post Office’. The Post Office regarded this Act as marking its creation: in a letter to the Director of Postal Services (DPS) on 21 February 1956, T A O’Brien, head of the Public Relations Department (PRD), stated that 1957 marked the 300th anniversary of the Post Office and that it should celebrate the tercentenary. However, by March 1956 the attitude of the Post Office had changed in favour of commemorating the Tercentenary in 1960 rather than 1957. A letter from the DPS dated 5 March explained the reasoning behind the change. While he acknowledged that earlier dates were associated with marking the establishment of the Post Office (Charles I’s proclamation of 1635 and Cromwell’s Act of 1657) the DPS concluded that Charles II’s Act of 1660 should properly be considered as marking its foundation. The DPS admitted that the Act of 1660 was substantially the same as that of 1657, but he pointed out that ‘it was stated in the preamble in 1657 that the GPO was set up as, in effect, a police-control or spying organisation, and this was omitted from the 1660 Act’.

  • Awg-History-Gavin-Stamp-Edited.Pdf
    A Hundred Years of the Art Workers’ Guild By Gavin Stamp What is the Guild? The sculptor and first Master of the Guild, George Blackall Simmons, concluded in 1885 that, ‘The AWG differs from all art societies in that it is not formed for the propagation of any one branch or style of art. It is not a school, it is not a club, and it is not a debating society. In the AWG I find something of a spirit of the studio life of Rome’. In the dark days of the Great War, the Master for 1917, Henry Wilson, had a less high-flown answer. ‘For myself, I know no more consoling atmosphere, few more recreative, regenerative influences than those to be found in the Guild.’ To the outer world however, the Guild is a club of artists, and, as everybody who is anybody knows, artists are unpractical cranks. A very great crank, C.R. Ashbee, writing in 1938, thought the Guild ‘spirit’ had a very high purpose. ‘It is the yeast of revolution. Its roots of course are in the Middle Ages and in Hellas: but it lived on through the classic Renaissance and as such is a main thread in what we call civilization itself, which is but a gathering together of many traditions. The Art Workers’ Guild, indeed, has been dubbed: the last citadel of traditionalism’. So, by the 1930s, tradition was enshrined at No. 6 Queen Square, London WC1. Writing in 1982, Frederick Bentham recalled how, then, ‘The Guild’ was something indeed to inspire awe.
