Queen Elizabeth II, the longest-reigning monarch in British history, reaches another milestone on April 21, 2016: her 90th birthday. Transcamster Bog honours the Queen with this commemorative stamp showing Pietro Annigoni's first portait of the Queen, commissioned by the Fishmongers' Company in 1954. This portrait is one of the most popular images of the Queen on Commonwealth stamps (Annigoni would paint a second, but less famous, portrait of the Queen in 1969).

The stamp is imperforate and ungummed (requires glue).

Transcamster Bog stamps are available on eBay, with sales in U.S. dollars on U.S. eBay and sales in U.K. pounds on U.K. eBay:
