So happy to see this new Royal Mail stamp of a #Selkie — they inhabit the shoreline between sea and land, that border between worlds and cultures. Our own @SelkiesHouse logo was illustrated by @nickhayesillus1 and designed by #peneparkerdesign
Loving this new set of Royal Mail first class stamps on the theme of UK Myths & Legends, including…a Selkie! Hooray for the recognition!
