LED ZEPPELIN, THE CLASH, PINK FLOYD Albums To Feature On Royal Mail Stamps - Oct. 15, 2009

According to NME.com, LED ZEPPELIN, PINK FLOYD and THE CLASH are among the acts set to feature on a new range of Royal Mail stamps.

A set of 10 stamps featuring classic British album sleeves will enter circulation on January 7 next year, according to stamp collecting web site Norvic Philatelics.

Albums in the collection include "The Division Bell" by PINK FLOYD and "Led Zeppelin IV".

Royal Mail are said to have assembled a shortlist of classic albums, though initially some were deemed unusable due to the darkness of the image.

	Shame the Royal Mail is now a pile of crap full of selfish bastards that seem intent on killing the company. The CWU have no grasp of reality, and no amount of "cool" stamps are going to keep this institution alive, unfortunately. I for one will not be buying these to support this sham of an organisation.
