Includes three embossed dated 'Celebration Europe' postmarks set in the central section featuring BB-8, Storm Trooper & the Millenium Falcon designs. As you may imagine all a little over my head - however there's no denying the STAR WARS iconic appeal to both young and old(er) today. Given the Global appeal of the ever-popular enduring film franchise which even I enjoy watching, an individually numbered limited edition of just 1,500 is minute. Globally Star War memorabilia represents £ billions yet surprisingly this small numbered limited edition is absent most online searches. Further - although the stamps and souvenir sheet are affixed to the fold-out 'pack' they are still mint and totally legitimate as such and may still be attached to propel a package through the Royal Mail 'system' today. Presently listed as stamps and miniature sheets by Gibbons but not as STAR WARS Pack, 'inflation-linked' those x18 1st class stamps at 1st class £1.35 rate currently carry a total FACE VALUE £24.30 (and recently rising each year) The Official Price was just £47.50 we're starting at £45 less current price-drops. We don't handle a lot of 'modern' but sometimes Issues may be compelling. Worth trying on eBay? Extraordinary (1. Pack)
