Stamp Magazine - January 2022
In this issue
In our January issue we nominate the best British stamp designs of the 21st century, sorting the wheat from the chaff to highlight the issues which involved newly commissioned artwork, innovative thinking, inspired presentation and quality printing.
In contrast, we delve into the philately of a country that is off the radar for most English-speaking collectors, investigating the full story of the stamps and postal history of Gabon, a former French colony with a culture worth shouting about.
Amongst our regular features, Commonwealth Classics examines the 1859 Lapirot provisionals, one of the many classic collectables that emerged from Mauritius. Great Engravers hails the work of Karl Bickel junior for Switzerland, Liechtenstein and the United Nations agencies in Geneva, while Victoriana explains why the 1876 8d orange was issued, and tells the story behind a typical cover.
Our news pages have the latest details of the upcoming London 2022 international exhibition, Stanley Gibbons’ share offer in the unique 1856 British Guiana 1c, spectacular rarities up for auction and unexpected varieties in the latest issue from Royal Mail.
