(RCSD) What Slania didn't do
An interview with Royal Mail's then head of design, Barry Robinson,
was published in Britain's Stamp Magazine, July 2007 issue, under the title 'Design(s) of the Times'. The article included an illustration of the 1990 penny black miniature sheet captioned ' ....engraved by Czeslaw Slania'. This is incorrect and a correction was published in the August issue. The sheet was engraved by Chris Matthews. It seems that Robinson confused the sheet with another engraving that Slania was doing at the time - a new portrait on British postal orders. Slania enthusiasts might like to note this. Douglas |
