David Bowie has temporarily dethroned H.M. The Queen who has lost her spot on UK postal stamps for a short period from March 13th. The limited edition 10-stamp collection will showcase album covers for “Hunky Dory,” “Aladdin Sane,” “Heroes,” “Let’s Dance,” and “Earthling.” The collection will also feature four shots from his live tours.
Royal Mail will also sell framed print sets: a Berlin Years cover, and an Album Art fan sheet. Some of these souvenirs may be limited to just 950 sales, the service says. You can buy them direct from The Royal Mail.
And when it is all over The Queen gets her spot back.
