Landmark anniversary of Churchill celebrated by the Post Office

by isleofman.com 4th January 2015
2015 marks the 50th anniversary of the death of one of Britain's most famous prime ministers - Winston Churchill.
To mark the event, Isle of Man Post Office has teamed up with the Churchill Archives Centre to produce a new set of stamps.
With access to his family's private photo collections, the set features images from his childhood and landmarks in his career.
Director of the centre Allen Packwood says the stamps capture the variety of Churchill's life, from statesman, to writer, to bricklayer.
