The Prime Ministerial stamp collection (9 May 1979 - 13 November 1990) covers the entire period of Mrs. Thatcher’s premiership. The stamps chronicle many of the important national events which occurred during her term of office. They include Royal weddings and birthdays and significant moments in British history such as the Falklands, the London Economic summit in June 1984 and
the Sino-British Joint Declaration in December 1984.

Each newly issued first day cover was carefully filed with a letter from the Chairman of the Post Office, together with a copy of the letter of acknowledgement from the Prime Minister’s office. Mrs. Thatcher had a personal interest in the aesthetics and production of British stamps, which can be seen in her correspondence to Sir Ronald Dearing, Chairman of the Post Office, 26 November 1985.
