Description
On 9 July 2020, Royal Mail issued a set of stamps celebrating one of the UK’s greatest music legends on the 50th anniversary of the band’s formation. Queen have more than three decades of hits to their name, so it is no surprise that there is a Queen song for everyone. Remarkably, more time has now passed since their iconic frontman Freddie Mercury sadly died than the band spent with him, yet Queen remain as popular as ever.
Produced in association with The Mercury Phoenix Trust, founded by Brian May, Roger Taylor and their manager Jim Beach, this cover pays tribute to Freddie Mercury and the global battle against HIV/AIDS. Its striking design perfectly showcases the iconic Queen album stamps and features a stunning image of the Freddie Mercury statue in Montreux, together with the Rockfield, Monmouth postmark (9 July 2020).
Featuring the following stamps:
- Queen II – 1974
- Sheer Heart Attack – 1974
- A Night at the Opera – 1975
- News of the World – 1977
- The Game – 1980
- Greatest Hits – 1981
- The Works – 1984
- Innuendo - 1991
