It's 150 years since Lewis Carroll published the famous Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.
To celebrate, Royal Mail has commissioned illustrator Grahame Baker-Smith to create ten key scenes from story.
The images are to be displayed on stamps and will feature a lively interpretation of unforgettable characters such as the White Rabbit, the Cheshire Cat and Alice herself, making the story come to life with new vivacity.
Andrew Hammond, Royal Mail Director of Stamps and Collectibles, said:
"The story of Alice in Wonderland remains a perennial favourite of children, and indeed adults, around the world. It is fitting that in its 150th anniversary year it is celebrated with a wonderful set of stamps featuring striking images that do justice to such an iconic tale."
