A new set of stamps in the U.K. of the 1961 Jaguar E-Type, 1965 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow and 1963 Aston Martin have just gone on sale in the U.K. in the form of first-class stamps. A set of international stamps featuring a 1962 MG, 1968 Morgan and 1976 Lotus Esprit have also gone on sale.
The images of the privately owned vehicles were captured by photographer James Mann. The Royal Mial described the selected cars as “iconic”.
Andrew Hammond from the Royal Mail said, “This is a fantastic set of stamps that feature a collection of the very best in British motor car manufacturing in the 1960s and 70s.
“These cars are classic in every sense and we are delighted to be bringing a reminder of these iconic motor cars to the nation’s doorsteps through this latest… issue.”
