More stamps...

Saw some of Wim Crouwel's designs for postage stamps at his exhibition at the Design Museum in London the other week, they're beautiful. Images  from Iain Follett's flikr collection found here.

Philately

I found this old stamp from 1965 on an old envelope containing a letter to my grandparents. It's not a rare one, but I think it's lovely. This was before they had introduced first and second class postage. I really want to start looking for more stamps, (even if it is a little on the geeky side) and I've been encouraged to do so by Mike from SoMuchPileUp (one of my favourite blogs). They have a great selection of amazing stamp designs from the 1960s-80s, be sure to check them out.
