Stamp & Coin Mart Free Doctor Who Stamp Postcard Set
Free Doctor Who Stamp Postcard Set
Order your copy Here.
Stamp & Coin Mart are giving away the FULL SET of 17 Doctor Who stamp postcards, each showing a stamp from the forthcoming Doctor Who issue as well as a selection of enemies. The fantastic free gift comes courtesy of Royal Mail.
Also in the May issue…
We take a look at the appearance of the Penny Black in May, 1840 The arrival of the 1d black is now celebrated around the world as a defining moment in postal history, but what was the reaction to the 1d stamp at the time?
In another fascinating feature we find out what the newspapers, people and politicians thought of the new invention.
One man who may have expected more credit for the postage stamp was James Chalmers, who some argue came up with the idea before Rowland Hill. In another fascinating article we examine the ongoing debate on who invented the postage stamp and assess whether some innovators have been written out of the history books.
Bringing GB stamps up to date, we examine the latest ‘Great Britons’ to be honoured by Royal Mail and bring you more, exclusive details of the highly anticipated Doctor Who stamps
Elsewhere in the packed issue, we provide a comprehensive guide to the stamps of Vatican City, take a look at science fiction on stamps, and look at the intriguing Roman coins of Gallineus, making May’s Stamp & Coin Mart another must-read issue

May 2nd, 2013 - 6:18pmPhew!…Only noticed this Postcard set with this magazine a few days ago on this very website. So I went up to my local WH Smith and managed to buy one of the two copies left on the shelf! Woo Hoo! So as well as having the stamps themselves I also now have the lovely postcard collection as well! Plus when you consider the set of cards with the magazine only cost £3.50 I feel I’ve got myself a bargain. The price is nearer £10.00 upwards for this postcard set online!

April 13th, 2013 - 11:30pmI got mine from WH Smiths today, it had 16 postcards in, the eleven doctors and the 5 monster stamps.
Sam Bentley
April 13th, 2013 - 5:25pmI got these today. I wouldn’t say they were worth the £3.50 but still worth getting!

April 13th, 2013 - 5:31pmTo buy these postcards from the Post Office cost £7.65, and there were not enough to go around. I could not get a set from 8 Post Offices I tried. Forbidden Planet are selling sets for £12.99 as are other places.
I personally think that Stamp & Coin Mart have been exceedingly generous in having a 17 post-card set.
It is probably the best Doctor Who related free gift there has ever been, and if not, then certainly the most worthwhile.
Time Lord
April 13th, 2013 - 5:32pmI’m delighted with with mine for £3.50, especially as they were over £7 from RM and they are sold out anyway.
Good read about them in the magazine as well
Sam Bentley
April 13th, 2013 - 5:38pmWell they aren’t the actually the stamps. But I guess ypur right… they’re lovely collectors items. I am going to get a few sets of the actual stamps some point.

April 13th, 2013 - 5:45pmi ordered my presentation pack 3 weeks ago and have had nothing, no reply to my emails enquiring where they are either.
Moodbeam
April 14th, 2013 - 12:04amGlad it’s not just me booboo! I got my stamps from the Post Office in the store I work in, along with the postcards and the first day covers. Because it’s not a crown Post Office they weren’t stocking the prestige packs so I ordered one from Royal Mail on 26th March… had nothing in the post at all yet. Got my first day covers back about two weeks after I sent them, which was quite a lengthy wait, but I thought I’d have the prestige pack by now considering the site said up to 5 working days. It’s been about 15 now. :l

drjakeyoung

Kroton

George The Lovebird
April 12th, 2013 - 6:54pmJust a point but your article says 17 postcards but the magazine covers says 11!
booboo
April 12th, 2013 - 8:49pmi think you do get 17
Emma
April 12th, 2013 - 6:46pmI’d have thought this kind of magazine would be available in a specialist magazine shop like WH Smith as they cover this kind of this. I can’t see any regular supermarket or corner shop having it as its a specialist magazine and only usually stamp collectors would be buying it!
Matthew Bazza
April 12th, 2013 - 5:30pmIs it out in the uk and should they have it in a local newsagents
booboo
April 12th, 2013 - 5:31pmits a specialist subject so you might only find it in large newsagents

April 12th, 2013 - 4:47pm2 QUESTIONS:
Is this out now?
Does it come free with the postcards inside or with it, or do you have to send off for them?
Thanks
Doctor Who Crazy Ross
April 12th, 2013 - 4:48pmI’m definitely getting it, but it’s just for those beautiful postcards.
booboo

Doctor Who Crazy Ross
April 12th, 2013 - 5:34pmawh, Went to 3 different shops, and not one had a copy in… I don’t think they are out yet, and the man behind the counter said ‘We’re not due a delivery until monday so…’
booboo
April 12th, 2013 - 5:38pmMmm, their facebook page says its on sale from today
I have ordered online to make sure
Doctor Who Crazy Ross
April 12th, 2013 - 5:41pmI know. My local Co-op didn’t have it in, it only had the kiddies magazines, newspapers, the motorbike/ok/hello/grown up magazines and sticker albums. and my two local newsagents had the same, but a bigger variety of magazines and neither had this stamp magazine in. The only stamp magazine was ‘The Stamp Magazine’… 🙁 Bit disappointed but never mind… I’ll try again tomorrow.
