Prestige Stamp Booklets
These are wonderful booklets packed full of really interesting information. Not a cheap product but certainly one worth dipping into if you have a fascination with any of the subjects they cover.
Each booklet contains four panes of stamps. We meticulously dismantle the booklet and place each pane on a First Day Envelope (available on Cotswold Covers, Stuart Covers as well as Royal Mail Covers). They are then cancelled with a set of four different special handstamp cancellations, connected to the stamp issue.
When dispatched to you, the remainder of the booklet is tucked into the back of one of the envelopes so you have the whole thing to keep and refer to.
This is one of those extra items that we send out flyers out when they occur so you know when they are coming out and you can order or not, as you wish!
Cost varies according to stamp values but in the region of £17.00 - £19.50

If you wish to receive these lovely products either mint or on First Day Covers, do please complete the Order Form and let us know from which issue you wish to start. We tend to mail out material some 2-3 weeks after the stamp issue date thus giving us the chance to receive the covers back from the postmarking centres for sorting. This ensures that only the best go out to our customers.
In addition to the covers, all customers receive:
- an information sheet on the new stamp issue
- an illustrated newsletter with additional articles of interest pertaining to the issue as well as an idea of future issues
- flyers advertising some of the new products, thus giving you an opportunity to purchase - or not!
As with all covers, past issues can be available so if you have any queries, do please let us know. We have a number of mint booklets from past issues, too.
