James Bond Royal Mail Stamps

For our collectors at BAB, to celebrate the 25th Bond film:








And to celebrate Q-Branch






Plus handstamps:




Pre-order: royalmail.com/jamesbond

These are lovely and as a stamp collector, will be coming my way.

There will also be limited edition sets (250 or so) signed by various personalities...but the premium on these will send them over US$100 each.

They are beautiful indeed, particularly the Connery, Lazenby, Moore and Brosnan ones.

I'll never understand why they don't release all the DVDs with the opening titles design as the cover. They did some for the SPECTRE/Craig Bond films leading up to Spesticles in the steelbooks:

Interesting that the Moore, Dalton, Brosnan and Craig ones are all from their debut films but Connery's is from Goldfinger. More iconic, I suppose.

Get a load of this pussy.





Fun fact, that mail address is the same one Fleming described in THUNDERBALL in the 5th chapter "SPECTRE".

M.KKBB EDIT: Merged MP's thread to the existing one.

Very clever!

Amusing to think what Blofeld's cat does when Blofeld's on business.

Brosnan chimed into the stamp conversation:

Pierce Brosnan on Instagram wrote:

Someone once told me, “More men have walked on the moon than have played James Bond.“ It was an honor and privilege to save the world four times as James Bond. To see my image on a Royal Mail stamp that celebrates the upcoming Bond movie, “No Time To Die,” and to be in the company of my fellow actors who each created the role of Bond with their own unique charisma and talent is certainly one for the books.

And Lazenby added:

George Lazenby on Instagram wrote:

Like one of the other fellas already noted (thanks Pierce), “More men have walked on the moon than have played James Bond”. I feel honoured to be recognized by the Royal Mail in England and featured in their new 007 Stamp Collection. Thanks to Sean who started it all for me. Can't believe it's already 50 years since I got to have a bit of fun in the Swiss Alps even though it was hard work. Impressive to see how Daniel Craig handles it nowadays. Cheers guys. George x

Nice of Laz. I thought he wasn't a fan of Craig, or was his beef with Brosnan? I couldn't keep up with his fueds.

Nice of Brosnan, too.

I have a feeling Lazenby doesn't actually write his posts - I'd say it's his manager Anders Frejdh who is a huge Bond fan.

Very possible. Laz has always been the outlier of former Bonds, while Brosnan has been supportive of Craig since day one.

Nice sentiments from Broz and Laz. Good on 'em.

I've been wondering about George's posts. They seem rather open and warm. Perhaps he tells his manager his thoughts and then they are transposed to net friendly posts.

Nice to see official recognition even if it is just stamps. Here in the US it was big news for the first stamps with movie related imagery.

Yes perhaps they are translated and transposed... Lazenby doesn't strike me as being that eloquent or polite, legend he is.

A friend has sent me the set of the 6 stamps with the 4 'Q-Branch celebration' ones in it too as a birthday gift .

Will try to get the postcard version of the GoldenEye stamp next month.

What are they going for? Might get them myself. Happy to pay someone to take the Craig ones, though.
