Lest We Forget - Army: Platinum Editions

Exclusive Army Stamp Sheet

Commemorates soldiers who fought for their country on and off the frontline.

The sheet features 10 Poppy stamps, with the black centre of the poppies creating the silhouettes of men on the front line. Each stamp has a label next to it featuring conflict images.

Special Signature

A small number of the Army sheets will be available signed by Corporal Bill Henry "Willie" Apiata VC, a member of the Special Air Service of New Zealand. He was born in Mangakino, New Zealand on 28th June 1972 and was awarded a Victoria Cross on 2nd July 2007 for bravery under fire during the Afghanistan Conflict in 2004. He showed extreme bravery after carrying a wounded compatriot across a battlefield to receive medical treatment. He is the first recipitant of the Victoria Cross in New Zealand.

ONLY For Club Members

We are not taking orders for this sheet, it will be reserved for members of our Sheet Clubs.

If you are in the Sheet Club, you will be contacted by Emma as usual to confirm what's reserved for you and as always, you are welcome to cancel or change the reservation.

Exceptionally Low Print Run

From May 2008, we introduced our "Platinum Edition" stamp sheets. These are our usual, incredible stamp sheets but with an exceptionally low print run.

ALL our sheets are investment-quality limited editions. ALL of them often sell out pre-release. So imagine how incredible these even stricter limited editions will be!

Priority on these sheets goes to members of our Sheets Clubs. If there are any left over, they will be offered to non-members but we suspect most of the time, you won't get a chance to own one at new issue price unless you join. You might find one on eBay later of course . . . . but history suggests the price will be crazy by then!

We are doing this to give yet another great benefit to our members of our Sheets Clubs and to thank them (you!) for their (your!) loyalty.
