Editor Matt Hill said: 

'In the last few weeks, the nation, indeed the world, has come together to mourn the loss of a hugely influential figure.

'We have all reflected on the incredible life and reign of the Queen, and of course, our hobby may seem trivial in comparison. Yet stamps are so much more than just ‘collectables’, and as time passes we can begin to look back and celebrate the second Elizabethan era, and the thousands upon thousands of stamps issued featuring the portrait of Elizabeth II.
