The U.K.'s Royal Mail is honoring The Rolling Stones with 12 stamps in recognition of their 60th anniversary this year.
Eight of the stamps will feature images of Rolling Stones performances, spanning sets from London’s Hyde Park in 1969 to Düsseldorf, Germany, in 2017. Another four will bear two shots of the band and two of vintage world-tour posters.
The Rolling Stones are only the fourth group to receive a dedicated stamp issue, following The Beatles in 2007, Pink Floyd in 2016 and Queen in 2020.
Universal Music Group’s brand-management and lifestyle division, Bravado, was the driving force behind the collection. Stamps can be pre-ordered via the Royal Mail website beginning today and will go on general sale 1/20.
