The best of royal stamps

Because what's cooler than having your face on a stamp?

She may be only nine years old, but Princess Leonor of Spain isn’t about to let that stop her from getting her face out there!

The tiny Princess, who is first in line for her father’s Spanish throne, is to be featured on 310,000 limited edition sets of stamps.

The stamps have been printed to honour the cultural awards in the Princess’ name, which are kicking off on October 23rd.

The stamp will feature a portrait of Princess Leonor, as well as an image of the Campoamor Theater in Oviedo, where the event will be held.

In celebration of Princess Leonor’s first stamp, we’ve had a look back through our favourite royal stamp moments.

It’s the Princess of Asturias, Leonor! King Felipe’s first-born daughter, Princess Leonor has been given her first official stamp.

But she’s not the youngest to feature! Prince George got quite a few when he was born.

And so did his baby sister, Princess Charlotte.

It shouldn’t surprise you that Prince William and Kate’s wedding sent a few off to the press.

This one from Niue was criticised for portraying Kate and Wills as being ‘split apart’ due to the perforation line.

The British press sent these stamps of Prince William out when he was in university.

Prince Charles got these ones printed when he became Prince of Wales.

The well-loved Diana was also honoured with a few.

In all her years of ruling, Queen Elizabeth racked up a number!

The Swedish royals are no stranger to stampage.

Neither is Princess Mary.

Even Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson got their fair share!
