New to our podcast is a recent talk given by our Curator of Philately Douglas Muir, on the stamps, medals and coins of Bertram Mackennal.
Bertram Mackennal was an Australian sculptor who, amongst other things, worked on all definitive stamps issued during the reign of King George V. Douglas Muir’s talk gives an in-depth insight into the design and production process for these issues, and also looks at Mackennal’s work on coins and medals.
The podcast is free to download from www.postalheritage.org.uk/podcast or iTunes
Douglas Muir’s book George V and the GPO: Stamps, Conflict and Creativity, can be purchased from our online shop.
