Fairy Stamps From Cantharidia

These stamps were issued by the Royal Post Office of Cantharidia
to commemorate the efforts of the Royal Society to preserve our
pollinators for future generations on earth.

They are a good example of digital serial art imagery, having been
issued in two sheets of eight designs, for sixteen varieties altogether.

A map of Cantharidia is found in the selvage of the stamp sheets.
