UK FIRST DAY ORIGINALS

Although I have not, so far, had the privilege to design a UK postage stamp this page has original illustrations by myself on the same subject as the UK stamps featured. Each UK stamp has been cancelled on the first day of issue.

The paper or board size of each original illustration measures approximately 315mm deep x 254mm wide - or 14" x 10", making these ideal for your stamp album. They are supplied in a mount for a frame size of 20" x 16" (500mm x 400mm). Double, or triple aperture mounts for these illustrations can be supplied to fit frame sizes 500mm x 700mm, or 500mm x 1,000mm respectively, at additional cost.

The price for these very unique illustrations is £250 each.

I have more of these and other subjects available in what I call a blank or partial stage, i.e the stamps and cancels and some with colour that goes under the stamps, all ready for the completed illustration. Unfortunately, I do not have any of the UK stamps that have been released in the last 2 to 3 years, due to the recession and not being able to keep up with the number of releases. I am not a key account customer, so everything has to be prepared on the day of release! Please email me to check availability.

If you would like a particular subject illustrated in the future, please let me know and I will make sure this can be supplied.

Please visit this page regularly, as I will be adding more over time.
