Royal Mail has released images of original artworks being issued on a new set of stamps to celebrate six classic science fiction novels by British writers.
The specially commissioned illustrations feature interpretations of the classics, and will appear on a range of stamps available from April 15.
Royal Mail said the stamps are being issued in the year that marks the 75th anniversary of the death of HG Wells and the 70th anniversary of the publication of John Wyndham’s The Day Of The Triffids.
