Like him or loathe him (and he was greatly loved by his people) Henry VIII changed the nature of England and Britain for ever. Now you can you have the chance to own the most stunning, enduring commemorative of the monarch, his wives and his tempestuous, extraordinary reign.
The Henry VIII & His Six Wives Commemorative Cover Collection includes seven superb covers. That’s one for Henry and each of his six wives. Together they tell a thrilling story of love, ambition, hope and betrayal. Each Cover features a Royal Mail First Class 26p Commemorative stamp issued in 1997 (the 450th anniversary of Henry’s death). The stamps are postmarked 21 January 1997, the first day of issue, at Hampton Court. A magnificent “Tudor Age” medal, featuring the King and his wives, completes a breathtaking presentation.
