another fun set of postage stamps from Royal Mail UK…

“Next year the Royal Mail will launch its stamp programme with a set of ten 1st class stamps designed by Studio Dempsey that celebrate classic British album covers - including Blur’s Parklife (designed by Chris Thomson / Stylorouge. Photography: Bob Thomas), and New Order’s Power, Corruption and Lies (designed by Peter Saville)…”

(more info and images of other 8 stamps via Creative Review, credit info for stamps above: “The sleeve of London Calling by The Clash (1979) features a photograph of bassist Paul Simonon smashing his bass on stage - as shot by Pennie Smith. Designer Ray Lowry’s design is apparently a homage to Elvis Presley’s debut album layout. Above right: Mike Oldfield’s Tubular Bells (1973) sleeve is by Trevor Key” )

evrt:

Uppercase is looking for participants to redesign your favorite LP cover (or CD). There is very little info other than that, but I am assuming it is for the chance to have your design published in their next issue? Anyway, I will definitely be at least doing one submission. Deadline is Sept. 1st. Click through and scroll down for submission info.
