Take yourself off into the realms of fantasy with this enchanting collection of mythical creatures, created exclusively for Royal Mail.
They have been incorporated into everything from heraldry to architecture, comics, novels and films. And now, six of our best loved mythical creatures have the ultimate accolade, a starring role on their own set of stamps.
These six Mint Stamps feature the work of Dave McKean, one of the most talented fantasy artists around. As you’ll see he’s unleashed his considerable imagination and used his superb artistic skills to bring each of these creatures to life.
Royal Mail is producing a Presentation Pack, First Day Cover and Stamp Cards to accompany the Mythical Creatures stamp issue.
