The Royal Mail will be releasing 10 stamps together with limited edition prints (950 ) in recognition of the great man. Am I a hopelessly biased fan or are the limited edition prints going to prove to be massively underpriced at just £80?

royal mail stuff doesnt have a great track record

still, the stamps will look good on letters !



sometimes you can buy a full sheet of stamps, they may well
end up rarer than the prints !

Already ordered some stuff .....after paying for Pink Floyd ones last year. The framed stamps look good on the wall.

I ordered some stuff as well just for my own pleasure. Can't help thinking that far  more than 950 Bowie fans will think the same.

Bowie fans are music fans I will skip this and keep to collecting records.
43cm x 43cm print is a total rip off.

I'm guessing that these stamps will be a better investment than the infamous 'Bowie Bonds' that were soon marked down to Junk Bond status.

David parted fools from their money very efficiently from 1978 onwards. Little wonder why he left such an astonishing astronomical estate. Normally such men would be poison to self-confessed Socialists like Chit Chat's very own IAN Mohammed.

A lot of these stamps end up being worth considerably less than what you paid for them.
You do a lot better buying R.S.D limited edition picture discs as far as Bowie is concerned
even though they probably sell thousands.

For instance Rock and Roll suicide I reluctantly paid £11.00 for one but could easily get £50 for it
now to a collector.

Looks like Aladdin Sane and Heros limited prints no longer available.

Alun2005 - Remember that his "astonishing astronomical estate" was significantly affected by his modern art purchases, which were astute, and very timely.  In fact given some of the subsequent sale prices, his estate was way undervalued.

Here is a link to Part 1 the estate sale - Just £20m+, and he bought the Auerbach's and the Basquiat's quite early, particularly the latter.

Royal Mail are the biggest winners they can just wait for dead pop stars.
