Not THE Queen, but the iconic rockers have been graced coins in the past, and now stamp collectors can get in on the action!
The British Postal service has announced that there are going to be 13 limited eddition stamps to be issued to celebrate one of the UK's most iconic rock groups.
The stamps will feature both iconic album covers, and shots from iconic performances too, like Freddie Mercury at Wembley stadium, or Roher Taylor at Hyde Park
Brian May said: "It’s hard to put into words what I feel when looking at these beautiful stamps. Since we four precocious boys started out on our quest 50 years ago, our lives have been devoted to making our impossible dream come true. Sometimes it’s strange to wake up and realise the position in which we are now held – we have become a national institution! And nothing brings this home more than this incredible tribute from Royal Mail. It’s particularly poignant to look at this collection of images now - now that we are all in a world dominated by a coronavirus, in which none of this could have happened. I just know that I feel an overwhelming desire to own one of these sets! Somehow it will be a way of persuading myself that it really DID all happen!"
Pre order is up now, and whilst you can't use them for domestic post, if you're a fan of the band, (Or stamp collecting for that matter!) you can pre order yours for around 30aud BY CLICKING HERE
