Not franked though so I don't have an unexpected curiosity. The postmark is actually on the back of the envelope timed at 1904 on Wed 26th so the stamp was probably sold Wed afternoon.NBLondonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12322553149519309420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-61379575088648114.post-69042627066373158852021-05-12T20:25:52.656+01:002021-05-12T20:25:52.656+01:00Most likely The Rolling Stones next year to mark t...Most likely The Rolling Stones next year to mark their 60th Anniversary or to mark the 75th Anniversary of the Top 100 Singles Chart around November ish,<br /><br />As for the Paul McCartney stamp set, not really my thing, his best work is...

It's not there either.

The reason should be that Band On The Run is a Wings album not a Paul McCartney album, but the Royal Mail have chosen to include a Wings album (Venus & Mars), anyway, while there were other McCartney albums to choose from.Eeeeenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07023477477610009765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-61379575088648114.post-82255476696444896012021-05-07T07:57:29.045+01:002021-05-07T07:57:29.045+01:00Very strange it wasn't included.Very strange it wasn't included.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16503542108081606132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-61379575088648114.post-38166329254772247732021-05-06T17:26:12.655+01:002021-05-06T17:26:12.655+01:00I wonder if there was something to do with commiss...I wonder if there was something to do with commission/royalties that their best album ever 'Band On The Run' wasn't included, with Michael Parkinson, Kenny Lynch, James Coburn, Clement Freud, Christopher Lee and John Conteh being on the cover.marcoonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11464073579217192381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-61379575088648114.post-51958937614562013412021-05-06T12:24:29.895+01:002021-05-06T12:24:29.895+01:00I wonder why the set of Beatles stamps issued in 2...I wonder why the set of Beatles stamps issued in 2007 isn't considered part of Royal Mail's "Music Giants" series? Come to that, the Classic Album Covers from 2010 isn't included in the series either. I'm sure it won't be too long before we see a Rolling Stones issue either.
