All About Stamps website reported that a new book by Douglas N. Muir, Senior Curator at the Postal Museum, will be available on 19th February.

According to the same report, Eliska Bejrova, Social Media & PR Officer at The Postal Museum, said: ‘From the Penny Black and the Machin, right up to present day Post & Go, it’s perfect for both specialists and general readers, featuring beautiful illustrations throughout. It covers postal history and stamp design, printing and innovation, master craftspeople and postal stationery, as well as less well-known stories such as early pictorial stamps from Palestine and the Gulf.’
