Note: the idea contained in the title of the article is an editor of Stamp Magazine, but still in my library card prevents me from properly credit the author for the moment. Just
Royal Mail she discovered modern distributor of stamps - they barbarously LISA appointed by the French philatelists - that it begins the illustration of varied media for receiving the face value.
Initially limited to impressions of Precancel stamps (the Horizon) at the request of the jailer and support all white, the dispenser is placed under the nose of the public since October 2008 with the help of labels Profile Royal adorned by Arnold Machin. With the advent of large effigies golden for countertops, trim from both types of machines are easily identifiable across the Channel.
Sniffing market "image", to borrow a slogan of some general statements about the same time next frog, Royal Mail asked quickly his printer to provide ATM stamps value pre-printed to provide collectors with the regions do not yet have machines Post & Go delivering them.
And what had happened: the illustrated stamps were devised and put into service September 17, 2010, with the premiere in London Stampex philatelists present autumn. Their theme: birds , About neutral, colorful, pretty basic though. Monarch to the French (?) Or celebrate Christmas, there's even a red robin, a robin. As in France, "LISA" are ugly pale blue or illustrated for two days in one specific place, the British broadcast stations in all machines in the kingdom.
And when there is more? Second series January 2011 with six new species.
Is there not the future of philatelic programs? Stamps to facial still valid for the client and the collector, since they are use values. Rolls of stamps future always used because the value is printed at the request of Royal Mail ... and even used up the last copy.
Then imagine the start of each month rolls nouveux: James Bond in January, dog breeds in February, a royal birthday in May, stamps year end in December, etc.. Oust! The stamp program prescribed value and therefore sell willingly or forcibly. Everything will be sold.
But we will say, this is the game of chance for the collector? That will give me the dealer? The series that I have no dog or the James Bond that I already have? Eh bé, there will be service Mail order values preprinted ... as usual for reserving?
Barely two years of general use and already using the system with equal gusto.
