Sunday Stamps | The British Museum

The first Sunday Stamps in 2023 is dedicated to Archaeology. So let's start the new year with something old...

These stamps belong to a series issued on 7 October 2003, marking the 250th anniversary of the founding of the British Museum in London (the UK).

The stamp above features Sutton Hoo Helmet c6ooad. Excavated from the ship burial in Suffolk, it is one of only four Anglo-Saxon helmets found in Britain.

The stamp below shows a statue of Alexander the Great, c2OObC . Alexander was deified in his own lifetime, and after his death was worshipped as a god in images such as this.

Thanks

I have some friends who are also postcrossers, and I think it would be nice to draw their adresses in the Postcrossing site. 

Well, that just happened (or almost). This postcard arrived through the Postcrossing site, sent by Valerie (the USA). Besides the wonderful design, it was very nice to know she is the same person that participated, years ago, in one of my postal projects and a Mail Adventures reader. How cool is it?

So, thanks to Valerie, to Postcrossing and, of course, to you who are reading this!
