In this issue

In the March issue of Stamp Magazine, we explore the early stamps of Palestine, issued when the Holy Land was under British rule, courtesy of a League of Nations Mandate from 1918-48. The roots of current troubles are clear to see in the philately of this period.
We also investigate Darwin’s theory. No, not that one, but the one about how coral atolls are created. The theory was conclusively proved by the American military during the atomic age, and we can follow the story in stamps.
The latest in our series on Great Britain’s special issues in the early years of Queen Elizabeth II examines the colourful Salvation Army set of 1965, while Commonwealth Classics recalls the curious 1880 surcharged bisects of St Vincent.
Our news pages reveal Royal Mail’s stamp issuing programme for 2024, explain how Stanley Gibbons went into administration and is now under new ownership, and showcase the latest highlights from the auction rooms. Our opinion columns discuss when is the right time to sell your collection, and what is the wrong way to send a Christmas card.
Don’t miss it!
