Jaguar’s E-Type is celebrating its 50th anniversary with a first-class tribute! Royal Mail is releasing a limited-edition set of stamps to mark half a century since the legendary coupé made its debut at the 1961 Geneva motor show.
The collectable stamps are available in sheets of ten, with each stamp containing a different close-up photo of the car.
With its long-bonnet design and stunning handling, The E-Type wowed the public at its launch, and it is still recognised as one of the most evocative cars ever made.
The stamps are on sale now at a cost of £4.10 per sheet.
