David Gentleman’s Artwork for Stamp Designs

5 October 2010

The British Postal Museum & Archive has a new exhibit – David Gentleman’s Artwork for Stamp Designs.

Many of Gentleman’s commissions were not adopted for the final stamps. Sometimes, the proposed stamp issue did not take place. So, of the almost 1,000 sketches and pieces of artwork held in the Royal Mail Archive, most have never been seen before. A selection of this rich archive of unadopted stamp artwork is exhibited here for the first time.
