Downstream access Royal Mail logo updated to Tudor crown.

Royal Mail announced a year ago that the adoption of the Tudor Crown by King Charles would mean a change to the cruciform logo.


John G reports that Royal Mail announced on 23 December 2024 that the Tudor Crown was to be included in the RM Access indicia by 23 December 2026, but they would accept and process mail with the Tudor crown before that date.

John includes this image of the new format:


 

Here are two small indicia from whistl (C9 10002) and two large indicia from UK Mail (C9 10001). 

A majority of indicia on mail still show the old St Edward’s crown, but I have also seen the Tudor crown on indicia from C9 10017 (The Delivery Group), C9 10020 (CitiPost Mail) and C9 10090 (licence-holder unknown). 

This will be another variant to look out for on direct mail with the King's head stamps printed on as well.
