It may look like the Royal Mail is running out of ideas with its latest set of commemorative stamps.
For to mark the centenary of such collectors' items, it has come up with the novel idea of stamps which feature... other stamps.
The ten new items, able to pre-order from today, will include a selection of three previously issued commemorative stamps – including the first, released in 1924.
That year, on April 23, the special stamp was issued to mark the opening of the British Empire Exhibition at Wembley Park in London.
