Title: Stamps to mark 50th Anniversary Post by: poprockgeek on December 26, 2012, 08:28:25 am (http://news.bbcimg.co.uk/media/images/64935000/jpg/_64935546_64935545.jpg) The Royal Mail have announced the each Doctor will get his own 1st Class stamp in 2013 & four of the shows villains (including Daleks & Cybermen) will feature on 2nd Class stamps. You can read the whole story & view the other Doctor stamps HERE (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-20838728) Title: Re: Stamps to mark 50th Anniversary Post by: Exterminate on December 28, 2012, 01:43:05 pm I was going to post about these. They look great. I can't wait to get them. They are promoting them really well, too. I think they could have picked a better one for Seven though. It looks like a really bad screen grab.

Some, but not all, are below.

Title: Re: Stamps to mark 50th Anniversary Post by: Mr Chinn on December 28, 2012, 06:41:46 pm These look brilliant. We have different postage here in Ireland but I will definitely be finding a way to get my hands on some.

Title: Re: Stamps to mark 50th Anniversary Post by: LaMoonstar on January 17, 2013, 01:05:52 am Oh man I wish I lived in the U.K. I soo want these. I especially like the baddies' stamps. :o
Title: Re: Stamps to mark 50th Anniversary Post by: poprockgeek on March 27, 2013, 11:51:43 pm Forbidden Planet have framed sets of these for sale. The price is pretty hefty, but they do look cool:

The TARDIS one can also be bought as a badge. Title: Re: Stamps to mark 50th Anniversary Post by: poprockgeek on March 28, 2013, 05:12:09 pm I was going to get the stamps today but the queue in the PO was crazy - my mate is going to order them online for me (if he remembers!)
Title: Re: Stamps to mark 50th Anniversary Post by: hannahcole93 on March 29, 2013, 05:29:29 pm I looked at them but decided it was too expensive for me. :(
Title: Re: Stamps to mark 50th Anniversary Post by: Nyki on March 29, 2013, 06:37:58 pm Same here. They'd be nice, but if I had the money I'd rather get stories I don't have yet on DVD.
Title: Re: Stamps to mark 50th Anniversary Post by: poprockgeek on April 01, 2013, 12:27:49 pm My friend remembered to order them. I'd love to be able to spend the money on DVDs instead but I don't have the room to store them - stamps I can fit in! :)
Title: Re: Stamps to mark 50th Anniversary Post by: hannahcole93 on August 10, 2013, 11:13:20 am Mum bought me these as "an investment"
I love them and think they're brilliant! She surprised me and bought the framed set. It looks lovely on the wall... I'm just scared about them fading now :( Title: Re: Stamps to mark 50th Anniversary Post by: The Doc on August 10, 2013, 11:17:17 am You can buy a sort of lacquer that you spray onto glass which leaves an invisible coating on it and stops the sun from fading the image underneath. My brother is a photographer and uses it all the time on the photos in the studio window. I don't know what it's called, but perhaps you could have a look for something like that?
