THE Royal Mail is honouring the Queen's birthday by issuing stamps illustrating the Trooping of the Colour parade.
The stamps feature images of the Queen, Prince Philip and photographs of troops from her Majesty's Household Guard. Although her actual birthday is April 21, the Trooping the Colour has traditionally been held in June, in what has become the sovereign's official birthday.
