New Stamps Celebrate Roald Dahl
Roald Dahl’s work is being celebrated in a set of special stamps.
The set of six Royal Mail stamps, which also depict the work of illustrator Quentin Blake whose drawings are synonymous with Dahl’s stories, feature six of the author’s best-loved novels.
One of Dahl’s most famous tales, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, appears with a beaming Charlie Bucket on the 46p first-class stamp.
