Grandson gets Muppet stamps from Gustamps

A few days ago Gustamps had the pleasure  of meeting John Freston. Mr. Freston came to Gustamps shop intent on starting up  a collection of British stamps. Mr. Freston told Gustamps he had a budget of £20 and wanted as many British stamps as he could have for that figure. Gustamps salesman offered Mr. Freston a mixed lot of all different mint & used stamps ranging from Queen Victoria to date - Mr. Freston was surprised to see unusual Royal Mail stamps depicting characters from children's books such as Peter Rabbit and Padington Bear. Mr. Freston said to Gustamps' salesperson "whatever will they bring out next - the Muppets?" Gustamps' salesperson  told Mr. Freston that the United States Post Office have already done that. Gustamps sales person showed Mr Freston a set of U.S.A. stamps of the Muppets depicting Kermit, Miss.Piggy and others. Mr. Freston was told that Gustamps price was £3.50 which included a Jim Henson stamp. Mr. Freston bought a set of Muppet stamps to take home to his grandson.

Gustamps would like to thank Mr. John Freston for letting Gustamps publish his experience at Gustamps' to share with other readers.
