Postage Stamp Booklet covers

Here are some gorgeous Postage Stamp Booklet covers featuring clothing to add to our series on Posting in the Regency period. The British Post office has issued stamp booklets with illustrated covers for many years, and they ran two series showing costumes through the ages.

These three were designed by Eric Stemp, printed by Harrisons & Sons Limited.
