Queen will be celebrating their 50th anniversary this year, and in honour Royal Mail will be releasing stamps featuring pictures of some of the band's most celebrated moments and album covers.
Whether you want to jazz up your letters or you're a keen collector you can find the sets of stamps and collectors to pre-order on the Royal Mail website. The stamps will be officially released on the 9th July.
These stamps are probably worth keeping, however, as Queen are only the third band to have been featured on UK postage stamps - they follow the Beatles and Pink Floyd with this honour.
In the press release, Brian May explained that it was "hard to put into words what I feel when looking at thse beautiful stamps."
"Since we four precocious boys started out on our quest 50 years ago, our lives have been devoted to making our impossible dream come true. Sometimes it's strange to wake up and realise the position in which we are now held - we have become a national institution."
