Description

Victorian Britain was a place of fast-paced reform and innovation. In 1840, one reform was to change lives forever – the introduction of the world’s first postage stamp, the Penny Black.

To celebrate its 175th anniversary, this exhibition tells the story of the creation of the Penny Black and its phenomenal social impact.

On display will be an original sheet of the iconic Penny Blacks, offering a rare opportunity to view this stand-out object up close.
