I’ve been a James Bond fan for as long as I can remember and I also love stamps.
When I heard that Royal Mail were doing a special release this year to celebrate the centenary of Ian Fleming’s birth I was really excited.
The issue is simply gorgeous (the image from the Royal Mail site really doesn’t do it justice).
Rather than limit myself to the first day covers I also opted for the mint stamps set and both overprint options. I guess in philatelic terms that’s a bit nerdy ! But they are amazing.
Check out the Royal Mail site for more details on the issue
