Royal Mail stamps mark Shackleton centenary
2016 is the year of big anniversaries. Shakespeares 600th birthday, the 950th anniversary of the Battle of Hastings and the 100th anniversary of Shackleton's epic expedition.
Both the Royal Mint and the Royal Mail are commemorating some of this years anniversaries and it has just been announced that the latter will be marking the centenary of Shakelton's expedition this August with a series of stamps.
