Royal Mail Releases Stamps With Hidden Clues To Honour Agatha Christie
To celebrate the centenary of Agatha Christie's first detective novel the U.K.’s Royal Mail has released a set of stamps dedicated to six key scenes and principal characters from Christie’s Murder on the Orient Express, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, The Body in the Library, And Then There Were None, The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, and A Murder Is Announced. Each stamp sums up one of Christie’s plots in a single frame illustrated by Neil Webb, with clues that point to the murderer hidden in the artwork. These ‘hidden clues’ are revealed with exposure to UV light or heat, and of course, the use of a magnifying glass.
The stamps were designed by London-based Studio Sutherland in collaboration with British illustrator Neil Webb.
