The first country to issue postage stamps is a fascinating playground for the stamp collector! The stamps issued during Victoria’s reign can be roughly grouped into the 3 basic printing methods employed, each producing very different stamps which are easy to identify. Line engraved issues. Starting with the 1840 1d black and 2d blue and ending in 1879 when the last of the Penny Reds with small plate numbers hidden in the designs were issued. Embossed issue. An expensive printing process employed between 1847 and 1854 to produce 6d, 10d & 1 shilling imperforate stamps with a raised unprinted Queens head. Surface printed issues. Utilised from 1855 to the end of the Victorian period which produced much higher quality stamps including the bicoloured 1900-92 “Jubilee” series.This reign gives us the rarest GB stamp, the famous 1864-79 1d red plate 77 a used example of which changed hands in 2016 for around £500,000. It is possible to build a large collection of Great Britain Victorian stamps without ‘breaking the bank’. Those seeking normal quality examples can often pay less than 10% of Stanley Gibbons catalogue prices with only the finest examples being worth around the full catalogue valuation. It is normal for philatelists to build their collections and enjoy upgrading quality as they continue. Further continuance may take the stamp collector into postmarks, proofs, blocks, postal history, postal stationery and many other exciting fields of philately. We recommend the excellent listings in the Stanley Gibbons catalogues, for those wishing to specialise further we also recommend their Great Britain Specialised Stamp Catalogue Volume 1 “Queen Victoria” which is packed with interesting and useful information including proofs, plate flaws, “Specimen” overprints and much else. British Queens on stamps. Stamps are essential items that are used by ordinary people to send letters or postcards. This is their primary function. But stamps can be also more valuable than just a piece of paper for mailing. And here we can already speak about one of the most exciting and interesting hobbies- stamp collecting. Philately enthusiasts are eager to add original and even unique items on particular themes to their collections. These may be issues depicting animals, historical events, sport activities, famous people, politicians etc. One of the most popular personalities that philately lovers want to see on their stamps is the Queen. In the history of Great Britain there were two outstanding Queens (Victoria and Elizabeth II). These monarchs have been commemorated with a great number of philatelic items, which are often worth a fortune nowadays. That is why stamp collectors do not cease searching for stamps with Queens’ images to decorate their philatelic albums and to add some chic to them. Let’s get acquainted with the most beautiful stamps depicting gracious and famous British Queens that have been honored with a spectacular variety of interesting philatelic items till today.

  • 'Reforming Academicians', Sculptors of the Royal Academy of Arts, C
    ‘Reforming Academicians’, Sculptors of the Royal Academy of Arts, c.1948-1959 by Melanie Veasey Doctoral Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy of Loughborough University, September 2018. © Melanie Veasey 2018. For Martin The virtue of the Royal Academy today is that it is a body of men freer than many from the insidious pressures of fashion, who stand somewhat apart from the new and already too powerful ‘establishment’.1 John Rothenstein (1966) 1 Rothenstein, John. Brave Day Hideous Night. London: Hamish Hamilton Ltd., 1966, 216. Abstract Page 7 Abstract Post-war sculpture created by members of the Royal Academy of Arts was seemingly marginalised by Keynesian state patronage which privileged a new generation of avant-garde sculptors. This thesis considers whether selected Academicians (Siegfried Charoux, Frank Dobson, Maurice Lambert, Alfred Machin, John Skeaping and Charles Wheeler) variously engaged with pedagogy, community, exhibition practice and sculpture for the state, to access ascendant state patronage. Chapter One, ‘The Post-war Expansion of State Patronage’, investigates the existing and shifting parameters of patronage of the visual arts and specifically analyses how this was manifest through innovative temporary sculpture exhibitions. Chapter Two, ‘The Royal Academy Sculpture School’, examines the reasons why the Academicians maintained a conventional fine arts programme of study, in contrast to that of industrial design imposed by Government upon state art institutions for reasons of economic contribution. This chapter also analyses the role of the art-Master including the influence of émigré teachers, prospects for women sculpture students and the post-war scarcity of resources which inspired the use of new materials and techniques.

    THE GREAT BRITAIN PHILATELIC SOCIETY 1955–2015 DIAMOND JUBILEE CELEBRATED AT THE ROYAL PHILATELIC SOCIETY LONDON 10 DECEMBER 2015 Great Britain Philatelic Society Diamond Jubilee Display at the Royal Philatelic Society London 10 December 2015 he GBPS has always had close ties with the RPSL. Five of our 21 Presidents have also been TPresident of the Royal. It is fitting then that this Jubilee display should take place at 41 Devonshire Place, the site of our first meeting. In November 1955 the following notice appeared in Stamp Collecting and 30 other journals in 16 countries: . an inaugural meeting with a view to form a Great Britain Specialist Society will be held at the Royal Philatelic Society, London on Saturday, December 3rd 1955 at 2.30. p.m. Major Beaumont, President of the ‘Royal’ and himself a specialist in certain British issues, has consented to act as Chairman of the meeting. Arrangements are being made by Mr R. A. G. Lee . who extends an invitation to any interested collector to attend. At that meeting were 48 prospective members (28 of whom enrolled that day) including Beaumont, Lee, Silkin, Willcocks, Stitt-Dibden and Jay. It is apparent that there was considerable discussion as to the proposed name of the society, which included GB Specialists Society, Society of British Philately, and the Great Britain Philatelic Society: The chairman . said that the Royal P.S.was usually in favour of such bodies calling themselves ‘Study Circles’ although he did not feel that it would object to...(any)...title proposed. An annual subscription fee of two guineas, with an initial entrance fee of one guinea, was established.

  • 5. Elizabeth II Pre-Decimal Issues
    Twentieth Century 4d Postal Stationery" R Size 10 COLIN BAKER ENVELOPES 4s 0d Part 5. Elizabeth II Pre-Decimal issues During the first two decades of Queen Elizabeth Il’s reign, up to the introduction of decimal currency, the postal service continued to McCORQUODALE & CO.

This period also saw a steady rise in postage rates, ending with the longest strike in the history of the PO and covering the transition into decimalisation with its associated issues of new stamps and postal stationery.

  • High Values with Security Features (A) Castles – Second Issue
    SECTION 8A High Values with Security Features (A) Castles – Second Issue In March 1992, the Post Office released enhanced versions of the Castle series, in line with the start of their campaign to introduce more security features to their range of de- finitives as a counter to the threat of forgery. The Castle issue received this treatment first as it was widely recognised that the colours used for the Castle stamps, although entirely appropriate for the design, almost exactly matched the primary colours obtainable on ever more sophisticated photocopiers. Outline Profile head head The most prominent changes featured an elliptical perforation on each vertical edge of the stamp and a revised Queen’s head. The adapted Machin head was re- placed by an alternative Machin design, the laurel-leaf bandeau head in profile, first used in 1968 for the Anniversaries 9d stamp, and widely used on commemoratives since that date. As you can see from the illustration of the fully featured version of this head (also used on commemorative issues), it has much in common with the Machin definitive head. Although not strictly a Machin issue as we recognise them, we include these stamps as they are a natural development from the 1988 issue and mirror developments in the low value Machin series. The head is printed in a security ink (O.V.I. – See below) but printed from the same plate as the Castle design, the standard manner of printing multi-colour recess. This is achieved by the cutting of Chablon rollers, rather in the same way as the old letter press stereos.
