Great Britain - Permanent Postmarks from Norvic Philatelics

Norvic Philatelics - GB Permanent Special Postmarks/Cancellations

These are available for any date, including Sundays - ideal as birthday gifts*!
Please e-mail us if you would like a copy of any of these.

* Ok, so maybe a plain white envelope with a plain 1st class stamp and one of these postmarks is not the ideal birthday gift. But we also have some older stamps which may be relevant to the date or location (or recipient). Also Royal Mail will happily apply these postmarks to the front (picture) side of matt-finish picture postcards or photographs, or almost anything that it would be possible and permissible to send through the post. So the possibilities are endless. Up to two different postmarks or two different dates can also be used. If you want to discuss the options, please email us using the link above.
