This issue celebrates classic characters and iconic sketches from the legendary British series that redefined television comedy, 'Monty Python's Flying Circus'. The collector sheet bears the colourful set of six 1st class stamps from the main issue paired with black and white labels featuring scenes from some iconic sketches set against a theatrical backdrop paying homage to Terry Gilliam's artistic contribution to the title sequences.
The BLCS 5000 pair of covers each bear three of the stamps and labels from the sheet with a pictorial The Circus, Bath handstamp.
